Feel free to point and laugh but just please give me advice also
No matter what I do it is extremely etiolated. Second thing pic is to show how close it is to the grow light 😭I water it every two weeks or so with my other cacti/succulents

It doesn’t make you a bad person
Probably overwatering… not a lot of plant to drink the water in the soil. Also watering succulents shouldnt be scheduled, they tell you when they are thirsty. It is a bit tougher on the dolphins, but when they are soft and kinda mushy then its time to water
If it came in that pot, maybe repot in a gritty mix. I use succulent soil and chicken grit and or perlite. Also he looks like he needs a lot more light. Mine is in a south/east window.
Let it dry out in between watering. Use a terracotta pot with drainage so it doesn’t stay soggy.
I would check the roots and repot to a chunky mix, cut off any mushy or smelly roots, and downsize the pot to the size of the rootball if necessary. It could be an overwatering issue. I’d only water when the pot feels like a noticeably lighter weight.
If you didn’t switch the soil it came in, it’s root rot.
