I think it's safe to say this little guy is dead.. I just don't understand what happened with it. I had it for about a month maybe 2, and was even in the works to get it a new bigger pot. Not enough sun? Too much water? Not enough water? I only watered it once upon having it. It really went downhill in matter of days too

It's wet in this photo because I gave it some water yesterday thinking maybe it was drying out

Looks like an overwater. The leaves becoming transparent are typically due to overwatering.

Is the pot able to drain? If so, the soil mix may have been too rich and didn't allow it to dry out quickly enough.

Light and temperature can affect the plant's ability to take up water, and the pot's ability to dry out as well...
Likely a combination of factors here, if it was only watered once in a month or so.

It looked like the water drained out easy enough the first time I watered. It's just incredibly strange to me because I know I only watered lightly..
The soil was totally dry the second time I watered.. maybe it had to do with the light. I don't know I guess I'll just make sure the other guys are in a nice spot and completely dry before I give them any.
