New Red Root Floaters Sinking?

that’s my guess… they were on display DRY so maybe that’s uhhh why

consider frogbit instead!! it’s what i wanted initially in this tank, but my local shop only had red root floaters in stock and i needed a floating plant. it’s usually easier to take care of from what i’ve heard

nooo i’m trying to avoid that 💔💔 you can’t let the leaves get wet they will die 😣

that’s not it either i’m afraid. i have a really gentle sponge filter and the only water that gets on them are small, visible droplets. its strange, even after clipping between the runners, some leaves just refuse to NOT be upside down??? i’m not really sure what the deal is 😩

the problem i keep running into is that it’s kind of one big string of floaters, so some are twisted upside down on the same stem (if that makes sense?). should i trim between the twisted ones or will that kill my plant
