Amazon Sword and Anubias Questions

Ok got a couple questions for you plant people...


First- Can i separate amazon sword? Ive got two that are probably 4-5" tall now and one about 2" tall... The reason i ask is because i had them in my mbuna tank and needless to say, they ate one completely and the other two about half way before i caught it. Since i put them in my 10g and started adding ferts, they have perked up big time (i also have more light on them per say...). One was totally eaten, nothing but a ball of roots, the other two were about half eaten, maybe an inch tall all together. The one that was just roots has really taken off and grown big time. So i got to thinking, is it possible to cut the roots in half or something and start another plant?

Second- My Anubias has a brown spot on one of its leaves. It looks like what a leaf on a tree looks like after a bug bites it. All i have in that tank right now are a few ghost shrimp and tons of mts... Along with 3 amzon swords and a ton of MH... Everything else looks good (except some of the MH has some light tan coloring like its dying off)... I hadnt added any ferts for the last 3 weeks, could it be malnourishment?

Sorry for all the noob questions, ive just never had plants before and quite frankly, know nothing about them... Thanks
