    it looks like it needs some water and maybe fertilizer

    I would pot it in terracota and with a lot more draining material in the mix. Also, make sure it’s getting plenty of light (aclimate it first to avoid burning it)

    I would probably downsize even more (you want 2-4” larger than the root ball) and use terracotta like the person above said. Use a super well draining mix, and tons of light. Aloe’s can take a while to bounce back!

    Ummm… sorry to contradict others but when it comes to succulents I assume over water before under. This aloe does not look thirsty to me. Maybe a little transplant shock and a little too much water.
