Sad news: The red potato is dead. Some mites decided that it was an all-you-cat-eat buffet and started devouring the potato from the bottom. The little bonsai tree had stopped growing two weeks prior, as it was apparent that several small potatoes were sprouting underneath the soil, most likely drawing the energy to themselves, hindering the bonsai growth.
I cut the main bonsai off the rotten potato and replanted it in the soil with some rooting compound, but I believe that my efforts to resuscitate will be fruitless.

a sad day indeed. Any hidsight/second guessing on care that the tater has been given- over-watered or under-lighted perhaps?
over-watered is my guess.
