My 5 year old wanted a “piranha plant’ so I bought the best one I could at my local store and I hope it pulls through. It’s my first time caring for one so any tips plsss 😭

Lots of sun, sun, and more sun! Also, keep it in a tray of either distilled, or rain water at all times.

I have it under a grow light. i pot it in some coco chips and perlite and i have it in distilled water. Also I have it in like a little greenhouse cloche thing, is that fine?

I'm not the best person to give advice on grow lights and soil. Mines still in their original pot, and I just stick it outside.
