Hi everyone,
I bought a little peperomia plant from Home Depot about a month ago, and it was doing fine until about a week ago. I think I may have watered it too much at some point - I had 3 separate plants and now I'm down to only one and it doesn't look good. The leaves at the bottom of the plant turn brown at the base and slowly wilt and fall off, and it slowly happens to the rest of the leaves going up the plant. All of the leaves are floppy. I've tried airing out the roots, and currently my last plant is stuck in my fish tank filter, but it isn't getting better. What's happening to it? Please help, I really love the plant.

Yep, waaay to much water. Put the plant into good potting soil and only water when the top inch or two is bone dry.
