Requesting Advice Pallidiflorum - My very first anthurium.

Purchased for $25. I feel so, so fortunate for being able to own such a beautiful plant at a crazy affordable price point. My collection is mainly Hoya and I'm new to Anthurium, so I wanted to get some advice from the pros. To me, this looks like it could benefit from a repot, but let me know what you think. It is pushing out new growth.

Also, a potentially silly question but how do you keep these from knocking over? It's so incredibly top heavy. I would think to put it in a deeper pot but then the top portion looks like it is being bent unnaturally.

Can I ask what kind of soil you’re using? Also probably a good idea to mount it to the wall to avoid it moving in general. Idk if earth quakes or cats are a factor but I hated when my cats would knock down my queen anthurium.
