Thought I would post an update. After moving it to a dimmer spot and flushing the soil for salt it still was looking no better. It actually kept declining so I decided to unpot it to take a look at the root. As it turns out the soil wasn't a very porous mix so I repotted with a much more porous mix. Can't find pumice anywhere locally so I used perlite and course sand to increase drainage. Nearly 50% perlite. Hopefully it will start to show some improvement. Will keep you posted.
