Your plant may not be getting enough nutes because the ph is high

Also I imagine a 250w flouro gets pretty hot so you might wanna back it off a couple inches. Or it may be fine where it is. Hold your hand over the plant and feel the warmth on the back of your hand. If it's hot move it up 2in or so

Test your run off water and tell me what PH it is.... Daisy2687 even told you above you need to get your PH down. Plants can only use water with a PH between 6-7 6.5 being ideal. If you PH is 7.5 as you stated your plant is locked up, thus not growing and slowly starting to die. Also if you have nutes in your water your PH could be even higher *(I assumed you tested your water before you added nutes, a common mistake)*. Get some PH down, flush your babies with PH'd water and then see if you get any new growth.

That would explain why your plants stop growing, did you test your run off? thats what your plant is drinking.... you should get that dialed in

the soil looks pretty wet, but everything else look good man. 2 days isnt too long, and the roots might be growing and you just can see them...dont get too anxious yet. give them a couple more days i bet the start growing again.
