dark spots like this are an indicator of sunburn on your fiddle! try moving it into bright indirect light and slowly introduce it to brighter light over time

Thank you I thought that was the case. Moved into more indirect light. How often should I water it?

When soil is dry for a minimum of a days time. I find that works for most plants.
