Something about the roots of FLF

Hello all. I'm not sure if this is a problem with my FLF but the roots are running amok!
I bought the FLF in Feb from my local IKEA (I'm from Singapore). There were 2 in a pot. But I didn't do anything to it, water or repot for about close to 10 days(because the soil was damp). Then when I watered it, I noticed the roots had overgrown under the pot. So I decided to separate the two plants and repot them. The other one unfortunately didn't survive cos I did something stupid but the current one doing great. I mixed 50-50 potting soil and cactus soil.
After the FLF is stabilized, about 3 weeks later I start to see roots on the surface. Suspecting I didn't use enough soil, I top up the pot with about one inch, to cover the roots and water it. It was doing great as I noticed new tips emerging. But one week later, which is now, the roots appear on the surface. I watered it recently so the pot is still heavy and moist.
Why do the roots keep going up the surface? Any cause for concern ?
