Good rule of thumb is to typically wait 7-10 days for new plants to acclimate to their new home and after you should be good to go. For this one specific get something a little tall beside the have deep roots

I recommend a terrarium or improvised terrarium by placing a cup, mason jar or plastic ziplock over to seal in humidity. The need a ton of humidity to stay happy and thriving.

I would definitely repot now if there is no drainage, to avoid root rot.

Some of my terrariums for examples.

I keep the lids cracked but removed them for photos.
