I really like Fluval Stratum for them

I use fluval stratum as well in a shallow enclosed “ take out “style leftover container. Previously I used perlite but like stratum better now. Recently I have also placed the container on a heat mat and have had quicker roots/ growth .

Do you have a preferred fluval stratum brand? (I’m in the US)

I’ve never tried it before but I’m open to it… I want to learn how to use semi hydro setups in general.
