Leaf drop could also be the result of nutrient deficiencies. You may want to consider that as a possibility as well in the future.

Although in this particular case, I think it's from old leaves like the others have said.

If you water more, you may not lose as many leaves during the transition.


what kind of water schedule do you recommend? its about 85 in the day with 85% humidity

Could just be adjusting to it new home...give it time. If it continues to do this after it has acclimated, then you can worry- but not now. Give it a good 3-5 weeks to adjust...
