    Don't overdo it with the fertalizer ( liquid formula) every six months is enough. The will be instructions on the packaging on how much to add.
    I'm sure the palm would like a bit more room, so go for pot that's as big as you can go. But don't repot it until it's healthy and green again. It might be too hard on it's system if it's not as healthy as it should be.
    Place it outside when you go to work and bring it back in when you return, it should get enough sun that way.
    And give it water every two or three days. Palms don't need as much water as other plants and you don't want to choke it.
