Something is happening to my plants

[cbster]

I have three sae's in my tank (for about 8 months now) and my Cryptocoryne wendtii "green" plant leaves are getting eaten or something. they look like they get part of them eaten in middle of the leaf and the leaf breaks in half. it is like they get real thin not eaten all the way through. so I don't know if they are getting eaten or if I have some sort of nutrient shortage or what. they grow new leaves so I am thinking they get eaten but everything I read say sae's don't eat plants. does anyone have any ideas?

If it is only the crypts, you could be seeing crypt melt. It's fairly common and crypts are just known to melt away for no apparent reason (changing conditions can be some reasons).

I will try to get a good pic of one and see if anyone can has seen it before.

Sounds like Crypt rot/melt to me. I just bought some C. undulatus, and they're melting now - the conditions in the store were much different from those in my tank, and I kind of expected it. Like yours, mine are putting out healthy new growth at the same time, and look very much like they've got 'bites' out of the leaves.
AFAIK, patience is the best cure - keep the conditions as ideal as possible, and wait it out. They should come back in time.
