Does this old pot look too tall for this new guy? I don’t want to have issues with overwatering!

I’m not sure about this type of plant but I read that you can empty the ceramic pot, put rocks or pieces of broken pots on the bottom, and put the plastic pot inside. This would make a cache pot with some drainage.

I have that same pot! I got my first Aloe baby in it instead of in a nursery pot. ONLY because I water my aloe once a month. Just thought it was cute we got the same planter 😌
