If you change its water chemistry in general it tends to fall apart... so I would guess yes... but I have a whole bunch that Uncle Willie gave me a long time ago... it crashed and looked terrible at first... but some of it survived and came back and now I have it everywhere...If you bring hornwort in from a cold pond outside, will it fall apart if placed in a warm (75 F) aquarium?

I have never had much luck with growing hornwort longterm except in my outside container pond.
I put it in my tank and see how it will do. Usually when I do this it falls apart despite being in the window.

My Ceratophyllum demersum grew super fast. I had a lot of nitrogenous fish waste in the water, a lot of full spectrum light, and a lot of dissolved minerals (it coats itself in lime). All three combined resulted in me having to sell off the hornwort twice a month or it would overrun the tank. It loved those conditions.Thanks
