@Lb710 I believe it’s from too much direct light, and possibly the water you are feeding it. this plant loves distilled or rain water, you can try purified as well and thrives in high humidity. I had one of these and this happened to every leaf because I didn’t know back then which was end of winter months it didn’t survive and through the process of research before my Greg days this was what I learned.
These beauties love humidity. I have mine in a room with a humidifier and I still have to mist it. Also, a pot with drainage is a must. Make sure it has enough indirect light and good airflow around it if you use a humidifier. You can snip off the dry damaged leaves. They also need a good draining medium.
I completely agree with @Ninabeena - they can acclimate to direct light and they need drainage and the want distilled water, but they CRAVE humidity!!
