Adansonii being weird

My variegated adansonii has been pushing out some weird leaves lately. There’s no signs of any pests besides the past 3 leaves looking funky (I check constantly and it’s treated). It has 2 axillary buds shooting off at the bottom of the plant and the leaves look totally normal. It always starts pushing a new leaf before it’s done unfurling too. Could I be over/underwatering? Are adansonii just weird sometimes? I appreciate any advice

My monstera albo is moving away from its support

Like the title says, my albo is moving off its support. It took a hard left when I had it next to a window but the light is directly above it now. Should I add some secondary support? Should I wait until it grows taller then move it back to the center? Since it has no support, will it grow slower? Sorry for all the questions, I’m just not sure what to do with this one. It’s been growing a new leaf about every 2-3 weeks and I’m worried it’ll slow down if it doesn’t feel like it’s climbing anymore. Any help is appreciated, thank you :)

Advice for my Jacklyn

First time owning a Jacklyn. It’s pushed out this new leaf since I bought it but it’s always looked a bit droopy. Curious if anyone has any insight. Also would like to know a good medium to repot it in. It’s been in the same soil since I bought it and seems to be doing fine, but maybe that’s why it looks droopy. Any help is appreciated, thanks :)

(Side note, it also has at least 3 corms that I don’t know what to do with. Growing corms has always been a little intimidating.)

Help with stuck leaf

My latest leaf seems to be stuck while it’s already pushing a new leaf. I know it might be because of low humidity, but is there any way to help it? I’ve tried misting it and wrapping in a moist paper towel for around 30 minutes and nothings worked. Any tips are appreciated, thanks :)

New leaf sagging?

My new leaf, practically overnight, started to sag for some reason. I’m wondering if maybe it’s getting too much light but the other leaves seem fine. Pic 1 is the new leaf, pic 2 is the latest leaf before that one. Is this normal?

edit: the sun burn on some of the older leaves is old from when I first bought it

New leaf or flower?

Not sure if it’s too early to tell but this is my first sprout since this polly has been in my care. It also looks like it has two spikes forming from the sprout.

Found this beautiful albo at Lowe’s today

Thought I’d show her off. Lots of fenestration and it was only $50. First albo and I’m so glad I found it.

Help with white fuzz on my shrimp

First time shrimp owner here. i’ve had a colony of yellow golden backs for a few months now in a 10g filterless tank with lots of plants (and an air stone). they’ve been having babies and the population has been growing. i was looking at my tank and a majority of my shrimp have this white fuzz. some worse than others (like this one). they’re grazing just fine, i’m just worried. i plan on doing a 20% water change tomorrow but i need help identifying this infection. Thank you in advance 🖤

How to make my monstera thrive

Recently bought my first big monstera plant at my local publix. It’s quite wild at the moment so I know I’ll need to tie the unruly leaves to a pole. I’m just not sure what to do with so many leaves. It’s got 2 new leaves but it looks like they got damaged during shipping. There’s a couple leaves with no fenestration and the big leaves all have some sort of burn spots on them. It also looks like it’s two separate plants. Should I do a heavy trim, keep it the way it is but attach it to a pole, or just leave it. Thanks in advance!

Golden pothos?

I bought this pothos a couple of weeks ago at walmart and it was labeled a golden pothos. I think some goldens can have some white but there’s no gold at all on this plant, just white. I think it looks really cool regardless, just curious what kind of pothos it may be.
