Parameter swings will definitely kill it

Send it to me and avoid the guilt of not taking proper care of it.

They are the hardest of the acros to keep in my experience

I don't know what it is about them

Good Luck

Honestly I would keep it. Sometimes the free ones do the best and thrive the best vs the ones we select for ourselves that seem to spite us for our choices.

Totally would keep it and wait for it to thrive.
