Is this etiolated or a good buy for $45?

Hi! I’ve never owned an anthurium before but really like the look of this Anthurium Crystallinum Hybrid I saw on marketplace. I just wasn’t sure if this is what a healthy one would look like or if the yellowing leaf and long petioles were a bad sign. Thanks! :)

Spiritus-sancti yellowing?

I just got this spiritus-sancti about 1.5 weeks ago, and am afraid that the leaves are slightly yellowing. At first I was afraid it was getting weird around the edges of the leaf because of too bright of a grow light being too close to it, so I moved it slightly further away from one. Overall… I just don’t really know what I’m doing with this guy and any help would be appreciated. I haven’t watered it yet since it was freshly watered when I got it, but will in the days to come once the soil a couple inches down is dry (I hope that’s right 😭).

Debating whether I should get it or not 👀 Only thing is I’d have to drive 2 hours total to get it (so add $15 for gas 🥲). Located in Central Florida.

I just got her and absolutely adore her. She’s a lot bigger/ taller and unrulier than appears in the pictures. She currently has a small support pole, but I’m not convinced it’s doing much LOL. Should I keep letting her grow wild and free like this, or does she need a whole “repot and readjust” with better support? Also, any general care tips would be widely appreciated! :)
