paytertot said:I already have one sword and it is going nuts growing. I have root tabs. Also the first plant I waited to buy until it had been in the tank at the store for at least a week to make sure it was aquatic but I guess it doesn't work that way

Change of conditions too quickly. Keep watering it, it might grow back.I took the plant out that you said wasn't aquatic and it dried up and died! Grr.

Probably what is happening with the sword. The lighting was different in the store so the leaves that were established will die off and new ones will grow. i would still put a root tab under/near it though.
