Okay, I have a 20H and a 5g that both have plants. I started with the 20H over a month ago and have a few plants that are yellowing. For the 5g, in the past 2-3 weeks I used organic soil/capped with black sand and used plant clippings from the 20H (from every plant I own) and it is doing well and I haven't done anything other than planting them and used flourish comp/excel 1-2x during this whole time and the plants that are yellowing in the 20H are not yellowing in the 5g (both have same lighting, cfl).
I really want to switch from flourite to organic soil, so, I want to know how do I do this transformation with the plants in (fish will be removed into a bucket with filter, etc)?
Also, do swords need shade with little light or do they need alot of light (I already know they are nutrient hogs..lol)?
Here is what it looks like now:

This next one is my amazon sword, moved from middle to corner, is it lacking any light or okay?

I think this plant has a rhizome, how do I make it into two the right way?
