Good air flow, and I water mine every week or so, using the dunk method, (submerging in water for an hour or two), & make sure they aren’t on any material that can hold water, especially while wet. Good lighting like a window or something will work, they attach to things like trees in nature, that’s why airflow is important ! Congrats on your airplant (:
The ends will start to bend slightly, or if you wait too long, the tips will dry and turn brown. Usually once per week is plenty unless you just use a mister/spray bottle. If you use that method, spray a couple of times per week. MOST IMPORTANTLY, dry them upside down for a few hours after submersion (points down) because you don't want water sitting in the core, which can & will cause rot.
How awesome is it that you got it for free!!

@LittleSongbird they will kinda curl their leaves and feel papery dry.
