i think you should buy uv lights for the plants because they may not have enough sunlight.
Make sure you have everything listed:
very good lighting (most important) something like t5 lighting
fertilizer;flourish excel
carbon dioxide in the water
Having plant substrate, eco complete or fluorite will help the plant. Latina Viva: How to Grow Plants from Clippings::

What lighting do you have? Do you fertilize the tank? Is there CO2? What plants aren't growing? I need to know this information before I can help you...
EDIT: Only 40 watts of light on a 120 gallon tank? That is VERY low light. Your plants are dying from lack of light.
it has to be either light fish or gravel
my problem has always been the light not reaching the plants...
What substrate are you using? It is practically impossible to grow plants in gravel. If you are going to invest in a substrate, ADA is the best, just don't get sucked into buying the powersoil, powder etc. Just buying the normal soil is fine. Otherwise, I would test the water hardness, I have heard this affects some plants.
