My ram and mystery snails don't bother my plants. I would say the plant is probably just going thru shock, and if I were you, I would just clip off the dead parts, even if that means you have to...
I have a live plant tank and I added fish from day two and there were no adverse effects on the fish either. You can add a bunch of hornwort because they act like nitrate sponges.
I have been trying one plant at a time in case the copper was killing them. I will try hornwort again but this time I will try a larger bunch. I have been leery of putting too much hormwort in at onc...

Almost any live food, plant or decoration collected from the wild has a strong potential for introducing diseases and parasites. Some aquarists raise their own live food; you can find starter culture...
Hornwort does better as a floating plant. So far as I know, it does not grow roots. The parts under the gravel just rot. Sometimes it's sold with a lead strip to make it sink, but the parts resti...
