I bought this guy from a nursery around 2 months ago. He brought some gnats with him.
I treated him for the gnats with very diluted hydrogen peroxide and an apple cider vinager trap next to it.
Some of the vines are dying and he doesn’t look full and happy like he did when I bought him.
Any help/suggestions are appreciated!

When was the last time you watered it? The leaves look very flat and cupped, it’s either not taking up water or hasn’t been given water in a long time. You may also have a mealy bug infestation, there’s a white fuzz patch in the last photo that’s really suspect
It appears to still be in the nursery pot if was bought in. Have you repotted it into a better long term soil? The moss these come in from the nursery is not suitable for long term use, and if it’s still in the moss it may continue to decline. You may also have some root rot issues if it’s staying wet for over a week. Getting it out of the soil to check the roots may be your best option here.
What kind of soil mix is it in?
Are you able to repot in to a more shallow pot?
Do you allow it to dry out before watering?
My suggest is get a more shallow pot as they have shallow roots, and repot asap with a succulent or your own chunky soil mix
