# I need help with my arrowhead. I'm new to the plant world and I've…

I need help with my arrowhead. I'm new to the plant world and I've had him for about two weeks. I put stones under him with water for humidity. I also have a humidifier. He's still turning brown. I cut some of the brown spots off, but it's not seeming to help. I am using tap water. Could that be it? If so, how do I fix this issue. Please advise.

I don’t have one but since no one commented I’ll offer my opinion I guess. I would try switching to rain or distilled water and watching the new leaves to see if that helps.
