if you intend to use that pot i recommend snapping off the reservoir if it is detachable and using it as a regular pot. self-watering pots will leave the soil wet for too long. it also appears your cactus’s root rot has progressed to stem rot, since the stem looks yellow and weak

The pot that I said I got is a normal part it isn’t self watering

I put one of my Hoyas in the same pot, I got it from Target in a 2 pack. I took the bottom off, and it grew like weeds! It was incredible. He’s giving me like 3 flower offshoots right now, too! As long as you know the watering, you’ll be fine!

This was when I got him for reference to how much he grew in the plastic white pot (granted the pots an adequate size lol)
