Is it possible this is sunburn?? I did have this plant directly under a ten watt Sansi bulb.
I’ve only had the plant for a week, purchased from Home Depot.

This looks like a lithops variety. There are very specific care instructions for these plants. It appears as though it’s split due to overwatering. Doesn’t look like sunburn because of the transparent part in the center. I could absolutely be wrong, the soil you have it in sounds about right though.

If this is some sort of lithops, it’s almost certainly overwatering. I only water mine twice a year.
