After bringing plant home, it was happy and growing. I then noticed some of it's newer leaves starting to turn yellow and die. After close examination, I noticed something happening under the leaves (white in color? .. I didn't think it was mites). Since I wasn't sure what it was, I washed the leaves in soapy water instead of using an insecticide. I haven't seen any sign of the underside looking like before, but the leaves seem to be losing their rich color and I don't want it to die! It is still in the original dirt, which seems to be more moss than soil. Should I just replant it? Could I be over watering it?
It gets good light, not sun.

Thank you much!
