Hi, any advice please? I have many plants but have never had a terrarium. My friend made me this today. It has succulents/cacti inside. Any advice, tips etc. the succulent (which looks like a money plant to me) has dropped several leaves. The soil is very damp as think they watered today. Obviously no drainage. Am I right in thinking covering the top would be good to create humidity?

Does it have a light on it and I’m not so sure that haven a lid is a good idea

I’m really good at keeping succulents alive but I just see what my plant likes and what it doesn’t

Some times I spray them when it rains because they can tell by the humidity and it can throw them off if not and I keep them by a window
