Rhypsalis burchellii. Can somebody help me with this little guy? It's loosing more and more branches. I put it in a warm living room, no change. I out it in a cooler room, nothing. I'm watering it about once a week and the soil dries in between.

I am far from an expert but it looks like overwatering to me. Over time I’ve realized more and more that it’s way better to underwater my succulents and cacti. Let it get really thirsty. Hold off watering 3 weeks or so and check it out again. It probably needs watering even less than that. It’s hard to just let it be but that’s my two cents.
