New to these and just repotted. Seems like he may need a bigger pot. Thoughts?

Edit: I watered and poured out the drainage from the pan. It’s still shiny in the photo.

Looks good to me. I would wait until you see roots coming out of the top or bottom of the pot, or the soil dries out way faster than it used to

I would suggest flattening out the mount of soil you’ve made around the stems. It looks like it covers some of the plant and might cause it to rot at the base over time
