Just wondering if I have re potted my plant too much as it’s not recovering well since it’s last move. Also should the leaves be a very dark green or is a lighter green healthier?

A peace lily only needs to be repotted when the plant is overcrowded in the current pot, i.e., roots are coming out the drainage holes or roots are encircling the potting mix. Then, only go up one pot size. Too big of a pot leaves extra moisture around the roots.

The leaves should be a glossy dark green. Here are care information articles that should help:
