As usual you guys were correct, I did get the fungus to stop with a little rubbing alcohol. I am still afraid that I will lose the plant possibly due to to much water and or improper placement in our house. I had my plants in a south facing window and they did well but while painting the whole house inside we had to move them and now they both seam sick but the one pictured is really bad compared to the other. There was even a rotted type spot on the top of the root ball and it just doesnt look good. Its getting nice here and I am going to place it outdoors in a sheltered area to see if actual sunlight my help. SANDY if you have more of these I may have to buy a few from you, let me know!!
