Hi, is the echeveria stretched and lack of light (I put in indoor). Also the plant use to have some red tint at the tip of the leave and its gone now.
I am from Singapore and the weather here is hot and humid all year round.

They start stretching after about 12 hours indoors.

If the leaves wiggle up like that that's how it starts, u can easily stop the etiolation at this point tho

My general plan for succulents in pots in the tropics is morning sun or equivalent and protection from rain in the rainy season to prevent root rot.
