I’m not sure how long ago you repotted but after I repotted mine it Didint look good for a couple of weeks then started to get back to normal

About 2 months ago and put the correct potting soil also.

Probably a watering issue, since that pot is a bit on the large side and they like consistent (self watering pot) moisture. It also may have just shocked from the move

Yes. It is the same size pot and self watering.
