Mangrove Losing Leaves

I have a mangrove that I got several years ago as nothing more than a pod (no roots, leaves, nothing! Friend thought it was a chili pepper!)

It's been doing great, but over the past few days it has dropped most of its leaves. It had about six leaves on it, now it's down to one!

Am I losing it? It's in a hang on refugium on my 20ga tank. I've had a major take off of grape algae, is it starving my mangrove of the nutrients it needs? It has a deep root system, I can see all the threads running through the sand in my fuge. Any help would be appreciated!
