    The pot also looks pretty big for the plant. You want the pot to be an inch or two bigger than the root ball. You may want to downsize the pot. I find a terra cotta pot can help keep the soil from staying too wet and allowing gnats to breed. I have a variegated peace lily in a small terra cotta pot and it is thriving.
