A chunky soil for good drainage. You can buy a ready made aroid mix or mix your own. If you make your own you can do peat moss, orchid bark, potting mix and some perlite.

It’s better to use coco coir vs peat. Peat is not harvested in an environmentally friendly way. It’s non renewable and releases a significant amount of greenhouse gas.

Plant looks very healthy, I would definitely suggest some extra support via a Moss pole or anything it can lean/grow along.
