I moved them to a fishbowl for extra moisture during the dry north jersey winter. I spray them once in the mornings. The rest had brown tips but they have all improved now, except this one. All the leaves except one turned brown!

    Oh dear. Was it in direct sunlight? Did you note how warm it may have gotten inside the fishbowl? Was it moist in there all the time, like humid with condensation? It looks cooked/rotted. They need good airflow or they will not dry out completely and will rot.

    I have a larger T bulbosa. I once had it resting upright in a sake cup on the windowsill. When the sun got lower in the sky, the poor thing got a little cooked. It outgrew the damage, but now I know. Around the autumnal equinox, I move them out of the winter sun path. I also have a very dry interior in winter. I soak mine once a week for an hour, shake it off and put it back. Never had a problem with rot or browning apart from the sun damage. If you want to try again, get T tectorum. It is pretty, like a fuzzy snowflake. You can dunk it once or twice a week just until it is fully wetted, shake it off and put it back on display. It can take direct sun also.
