I don't have any idea what could cause tomato seedlings to go yellow. I
keep mine between 55 and 65 degrees F while they are under lights. I
feed them in the water with a crystaline fertilizer (like Miracle Gro)
mixed at 1/4 strength. All water is from the bottom. I occasionally
get a little purpling that quickly goes away, but I never see any
yellow.
