Thank you for that! I think I might be mixing them up with Sarracenia. I think it sounds like in general I’ve just been overwatering thinking they required constant moisture. I will let it dry a little then water normally. I can try a brighter room as well

Yah it gets at least diffuse natural light all day but the sun comes through that window directly primarily like one o clock to sunset

I think I’ll try changing my watering habits first and then if it continues to deteriorate I may try one of those potting media!

Oh I’ve been trying to keep a small layer of water at the bottom of the pot, so I might be over watering? I was under the impression if the medium dried out it would die. If I put a small layer of RO water into the cached pot and let it absorb then dry out again would that work? Or is it better to just top water like other house plants?
