Make sure it has good drainage. It should be ok give it time.

in my experience, if you find the leaves are getting pale and dull it might need less light :)

Brown tips are often because of chlorine/chloramine in tap water.

Spider plants like distilled, RO, or treated tap water.

IME, they’re delicate plants, and some broken leaves are inevitable if you have to handle them at all.
