It might be overwatered! These like the top layer of soil to dry before getting watered again. I’d also only water with rainwater or distilled water since they’re lime sensitive.

i was thinking that it could be an issue with my tap water but i wouldn’t think it would just happen randomly! i’ll definetly let it dry out for awhile
