I bought this plant from Trader Joe’s just a few weeks ago and it’s already looking really unhappy, seems like more than just shock. Any tips?

Sorry no advice on the plant but I want to say how amazing your turtle looks

Looks like an alocasia! They like a lot of humidity and don’t really like when the soil gets completely dry. Does the pot that it’s in have drainage?  
Alocasias are very picky but I used to have one like this from Trader Joe’s (my cat killed it) I would say make sure it’s in a well draining pot/soil and that it gets some humidity. Could also be in a pot that’s too big. They lowkey like being somewhat root bound.  
I have mine in little plastic cups on top of a peddle tray for humidity and that seems to work really well for mine! Hope this helps!

Thank you so much!! I’ll try and increase the humidity :)

No tips but that's a really nice string of turtles!

I can't help you, but I wanted to say I love the plant on the left! I hope your alocasia does better, though.
