When it comes to watering philodendrons err on the side of underwatering. Also you may want to give it more brighter indirect sunlight.

Also you labeled mini monstera as monstera deliciosa. Mini monstera may look like monstera deliciosa, but it is in fact not even a monstera it is a rhaphidophora. Because mini monstera’s scientific name is rhaphidophora tetrasperma.
