Please help!

I’ve had this mangrove plant for about six months. It’s potted in a 50/50 mix of sand and pebbles, with water in the pot and no drainage, since the roots are meant to stay submerged. It had been thriving and growing rapidly for a while, and I mist it once a day could i possible overwatered it with the mist?. However, I’ve recently noticed that the leaves are starting to turn brown. What can I do to help my tree recover? I’d really appreciate any advice or suggestions.

It may need some nutrients. I use a fertilizer for aquarium plants that you can get at your LFS. I've had my mangroves for three or four months now with no issues.
 
What light are you using for your mangrove?

Imo, root rot…need to submerge roots and do routine WC. I do weekly. This is normal yellowing imo, yours is not.
