How often are you watering it? They are prone to root rot if watered to often.

Yes, Sunflowers is right, and make sure the pot drains well. Also you should use a special succulent soil or you can make your own. One part potting soil, one part coarse sand and one part perlite. They like a bright light and cold temperatures could be fatal.

Good luck.
