I keep watering, but he still looks terrible. Should I move to a smaller pot. When I got him he was in a humidity dome. Should I move him back to something like that?

if i where you i would check the roots and look for root rot. I would definitely suggest if there is not a lot of root to the plant, to get a smaller pot. if you think that there’s mildew on top of the soil, it might be time to get some new soil and add a bit of fertilizer (not the liquid kind that stuff is junk) 😂
