    Yes, but keep in mind that the plant prefers temperatures between 60º F and 75º F and should not be placed in direct sunlight, as this could burn or bleach the plant's leaves. A nice, brightly shaded location should be ok.

    Some plants go into shock when they are repotted. It sounds like yours has. Make sure that the drainage is good in the new pot and provide a little fertilizer. If you give it good care, it should come out of shock and recover.

    After repotting, plants will oftentimes experience a period of shock while adjusting to their new environment. Make sure that you have given it adequate water and place it in similar light conditions as before. With almost all houseplants, it is best to repot while they are dormant in the fall and winter. They are less susceptible to transplant shock if they are repotted when not actively growing.

    This is likely Mealybug infestation. Neem Oil can be used to treat the plant. Mealbug can be stubborn and you may need multiple treatments.
    I would recommend even dotting the 'spots' with Neem Oil using a Q tip.

    Yes, these plants tend to root quite easily in water.
