I have a Begonia Burkillii (dark form). Not sure if it’s ...

My plant is in a terrarium because I was told it needed lots of humidity. I’m using a terrarium soil blend with coco coir, charcoal, and pumice and I keep the soil pretty moist. It’s also kept about a foot away from a south facing window so it gets a lot of bright light but not direct sunlight. The leaves aren’t limp but they have these brownish reddish spots on them and the tips are curling down. I don’t see any new growth and I’m worried. Is it better to take it out of the terrarium and keep it in a pot? Not sure what to do to bring it back to good health!
1ft to light, indirect
2” pot

@MissBegonia Hi p, can you show a few more photos of the terrarium or a photo not so close up? Thanks
@Seymour here are some additional photos!
@MissBegonia B.Burkillii does require humidity but I don’t believe your begonia is getting enough air flow.
