Why is my leaf yellowing and fading?
This is the second leaf to do this in the last month. The other one turned brown and died.
This pup, only has one other leaf, that had been growing but has since stopped. #snakeplant

Snake plants like bright, indirect sunlight and like to be watered only when they dry out. You might try to move it a little closer to a window and see if it likes a little more light. Different varieties like different things, and sometimes it takes trying different things to see what they like. Is it in a good quality soil mix? Does it have good drainage? If it’s not growing, it might need checked by removing it from the pot and checking the roots. Are they soggy at the bottom and dry at the top? That would mean it’s not draining well enough. If all looks good with the roots, I would then think it’s a light issue. Good luck!
@StalwartBokchoi It is in a succulent/cactus soil mixture. The pot has drainage. When I last watered it the top inch or so was bone dry.
For more context, I bought it this spring. Both 'fans' grew from the middle. One of them lots. The one I am noticing having issues dropped it's two outside most leaves.
At the beginning of August, I moved it to a new room in my house. I think it is getting similar light to before, if not more.
Since I moved it, I had this happen to one of the leaves on this fan, and now this one is declining.
I think this is the older of the two 'fans' that is having trouble.

@TenableLambsear Hi Kathryn! These guys love bright light! LOVE IT! I would say it is a light issue for sure! I water mine about every 10-14 days- it’s growing like crazy! Good luck to you both🪴🌼
