You should probably put it in soil. So it doesn’t grow water roots unless that’s what you want.

It could be a lack of nutrients. Monstera’s can thrive in water, but just need to be given some sort of hydroponic nutrients, since it can’t pull any from the soil as it normally would planted. I personally like to keep mine in water since that’s one less plant that I have to worry about getting pests/watering when soil is dry. If you decide to keep it in water, make sure you change out the water at least once a month, it replenishes the oxygen in the water.
