Is it sitting in water in the dish or is the dish dry? If water collects in the dish, you might put some small rocks or marbles or similar in it to lift the plant out of the water. Also you don't say how much light it is getting, or if the brown spots are on older leaves (though you may not know which are the older leaves yet). Perhaps you could post a picture?

Thank you so much! It was sitting in a dry dish (the little blue dish) with dry decorative moss, however this morning i switched it to a clear decorative glass because i thought maybe the little blue dish wasn'

I think the dish was probably fine. You say the moss was dry, so it was probably not causing a problem. The decorative glass may cut off air movement a bit [they aren't called "air plants" for nothing ;)] You can use the glass (it is pretty) but maybe raise the plant so most of it is in the open air. When you mist or otherwise water it, you might lay it beside its little home to let it dry thoroughly before placing it back in the stand. A great thing about air plants is you can experiment with how to show them off. No heavy dirt-filled pots to move around. I use little dishes, shot glasses, old candle holders that have holes on the sides, and even a big, flattish shell I bought at a rock/gem/mineral show (a great place to get decorative rocks like petrified wood).

Ok thank you! I will try that. Can you tell if the little brown spots are rot or not?

I doubt it is rot, but Gonzer is an expert on spotting problems and offering solutions -- but also in dismissing reasons to worry. He can probably also identify it, perhaps a Harrisii...?
