I always hydrate pitchers from new plants. In most cases you will likely lose them as it's adjusting to its new home, but will grow new ones when its acclimated

Sweet
I think his humidity is a bit higher than yours but it should be fairly well hardened off.

Should acclimate just fine if left be and given good light.

I can tell positively from the pic. Is it TC , SG or a RC?
