How do I repot this plant?

I simply lift out of pot and scratch the bottom of the roots slightly place in new pot with new potting soil in the bottom and around the plant in the new pot which is no more than 2 inches larger than the old one. I do not water right away until the plant settles in for a day. I usually keep it slightly moist at all times after this.

Ive had mine for a few weeks and never have the leaves rolled and unrolled its also now dying, any help woukd be appreciated

When the leaves roll in from the sides it usually means there's a lack of humidity. The plant is trying to use its leaves to hold in the moisture, prayer plants tend to like lots of humidity. Using distilled water also keeps it happy I hear.

Can I spray the leaves with water from my fish tank

You can, it’s safe for plants, but run the risk of nitrogen burn on the leaves if there’s already enough nitrogen in the soil. You can by a soil test kit. If you use liquid fertilizer, it should be half the strength. Fish emulsion is great for the soil. Use filtered, bottled water to mist the leaves if the humidity is not high enough in your home. you can place a glass of water by the plant, place the plant on a tray of rocks with water in the bottom, or group plants together.

Is this a well established plant with multiple leaves? How is it shipped me

Not well established at all it's only individual cuttings with less than 1/4 inch roots, some stems have no roots at all. Packaging was fine it arrived not damaged and securely packed but I wanted a well established plant, not a handful of cuttings
