It’s doesn’t require a lot of water, or maintenance, just lots of indirect sunlight, and planted in well-drained soil. Good luck, and can’t wait to see your progress.

My advice is to repot into a terra cotta pot with a drainage hole, well draining soil, water only when soil has already been dry for a week or two, they really like to dry out, and increase sunlight gradually to avoid sunburn.

I agree terra-cotta pot might be better, but I’m also wondering if that pot is too big for it. How established are those roots? It’s kind of hard to see the scale but my aloe vera likes a very small pot.
