Bigfish, don't sweat it too much. Those plants are tough. Just give 'em time and maybe a little fert boost. Oh, and make sure your light isn't too close to the water, that can cause heat stress.

Thanks for the advice, everyone. I'll try adding some liquid fertilizer and maybe adjust the light duration. I'll keep an eye on the rhizomes to make sure they're not buried or damaged. Appreciate the help!

Yeah, and if all else fails, blame the plants. They're probably just being stubborn.
