My maranta leaves are curling like they’re under watered. But I have it in semi-hydro with LECA and the roots look great. What else could be making these leaves act like this?

Could be a humidity issue, mine sometimes curls it’s leaves when the air is dryer

do you know what the relative humidity is in your house? anything under 50% and prayer plants (and others with thin leaves) will start to suffer.  
i’m noting that it’s right in the window and wondering how the weather is near you? any extreme cold or heat can cause the leaves to curl as a stress response
