(Last picture is my frydek that was getting too much light for comparison.)
My Melo is doing all kinds of acrobatics except growing like a normal plant.
First I thought the plant was getting too much light because I know Alocasia's duck away from the light when it's too much, but one of the leaf has quite a long stem (1st picture), and when it's too much light they bent down at the top and not the whole stem right?(Like the picture of the frydek?)
And what the hell is that other leaf doing? How am I suppose to know what it needs when it looks like the plant itself doesn't really know either.
The leaves are also starting to touch the surface and the ceramic pot so it really needs to grow more upwards.
Roots look great, stems are firm.

Maybe it’s thirsty? I know alocasias droop when they’re thirsty.
Might have been the issue with your frydek too. Mine gets full direct sun and it loves it. I wasn’t aware they could get too much light unless it’s direct/concentrated and burning the leaves.
