The Golden Pothos, also known as Epipremnum aureum, is a popular and resilient vining plant prized for its glossy, heart-shaped leaves with striking golden-yellow marbling. This low-maintenance, fast-growing plant thrives in a variety of conditions, making it an excellent choice for bioactive setups, where it will complement the natural ecosystem of your terrarium, vivarium, or paludarium.

Care Instructions

LIGHT. Prefers bright, indirect light but is highly adaptable and can tolerate lower light levels. However, the golden variegation will be more pronounced in brighter light. In bioactive setups, place your Golden Pothos near a light source but avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.

SOIL. A well-draining, loose soil mix is ideal. A blend of coconut coir, perlite, and orchid bark works well for this plant, mimicking its natural tropical environment and providing good aeration. In bioactive enclosures, this type of soil will not only keep your plant happy but also create a thriving habitat for decomposers like isopods and springtails, which help break down organic matter.

WATERING. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top 1-2 inches to dry out between waterings. In bioactive setups, the decomposers like isopods and springtails will help maintain balance by breaking down excess organic material, so you don’t need to worry about over-watering. Be mindful not to let it stay too wet for long periods.

HUMIDITY. Thrives in high humidity, making it a great fit for bioactive tanks. Aim to keep humidity levels above 60% for optimal growth. The naturally humid environment in bioactive setups is perfect for this plant.

TEMPS. Prefers warm temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Avoid placing it in drafty areas or near cold windows to prevent stress. A steady, warm environment will keep it growing vigorously.

FERTILIZATION. During the growing season (spring and summer), feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. In winter, reduce feeding as the plant’s growth slows. For a nutrient-pumped soil that supports lush growth, try using Mealworm Frass — a natural, organic fertilizer produced by mealworm colonies fed on diverse vegetation.

Cohabitation with Bioactive Organisms

ISOPODS. Isopods are excellent partners for Golden Pothos. They help maintain a healthy substrate by breaking down plant debris and uneaten food, keeping the soil nutrient-rich without becoming too compact. The decaying leaves and organic matter from the plant will feed the isopods, creating a natural, balanced cycle.

SPRINGTAILS. These tiny arthropods are great at managing mold, fungi, and decaying organic matter. Springtails thrive in the humid, moist environment that Golden Pothos loves, keeping the soil clean and healthy. Their constant work in the soil ensures that the plant’s roots remain healthy and free from mold.

Soil and Maintenance Tips

SUBSTRATE. A well-draining, nutrient-rich substrate is key. A mixture of coconut coir, orchid bark, and perlite provides optimal root health while also supporting decomposers like springtails and isopods. A thin layer of activated charcoal at the bottom of the tank can also help with filtration and odor control.

HUMIDITY CONTROL. In a bioactive environment, a shallow water dish or light misting can increase humidity levels. Golden Pothos will thrive in moist conditions, and the presence of springtails will help maintain the moisture balance in the substrate.

TRIMMING. Golden Pothos grows rapidly, so trimming the vines occasionally helps maintain its shape and encourages bushier growth. You can easily propagate the cuttings in water or soil, making this plant a fantastic option for expanding your collection.

PEST CONTROL. Golden Pothos is naturally pest-resistant. However, in a bioactive setup, springtails and isopods will help control any small pests like mealybugs or aphids by feeding on their eggs or larvae, keeping your plant healthy and pest-free.


With its vibrant, gold-speckled leaves and ease of care, Golden Pothos is a perfect choice for bioactive setups. It thrives alongside decomposers like isopods and springtails, helping create a sustainable, nutrient-pumped environment where both your plants and the ecosystem of your vivarium or terrarium can flourish. By mimicking the plant’s natural habitat with proper humidity, light, and soil, you’ll support healthy growth and a thriving ecosystem.

USE THIS 3 yr old-10yr old cars But it is not for use for classic muscle car-flat tappet cams
Style: Restore & Protect, Size: 5 QT, Configuration: 5W-30
Valvoline has come up with a tested, amazinng engine oil for not the newest cars..but for cars say 3-10 years old that may have some varnish-sludge build up..works slowly enough over time so it doesnt suddently clog the filter, but DO change oil and filter at 3500, not more. In fact 3500 to 4K max for ANY car, any time. DO NOT go longer as some mfg or oil say you can. Tests show that sludge builds up. This oil is NOT for classic muscle cars with flat tappet cams.

A fascinating glimpse into the undoing of the Confederacy
Format: Paperback
This dense and and well-written book includes some really interesting insights into how the Confederacy was formed, but then ultimately challenged and destroyed by some of the people it excluded. In Confederate Reckoning, we get to learn about the epic political battle in which White women and slaves in the South helped to undermine the Confederacy and determine the outcome of the Civil War.

Excellent book!
Format: Paperback
I think this is a fabulous book. I have always been interested in the causes of the civil war and this book presents an interesting, almost fascinating perspective, which I havent' seen in other books. I have also been reading James Oakes fabulous "Freedom National" and the two books complement each other extremely well. McCurry's book is not of the quality that Oakes book is but not much is. I cannot understand the criticism of her writing. I find her writing to be very good...admittedly some of the sentences are too long and a few ill defined names but this is a very well written book. Although we have all studied some version of much of this material before I find it hard to believe that almost anyone won't be astonished by the magnitude of the task the confederacy was attempting to take and its inherent stupidity or maybe a better description would be craziness of these people. Good book!

Outstanding exploration of the Confederacy's domestic divisions which helped contribute to its ultimate defeat.
Format: Paperback
This is an extremely powerful interpretation of the political forces at play in the Civil War South. Like it or not, Stephanie McCurry delivers a careful exploration of the domestic forces which were occurring during the Civil War in the Confederacy. The result is illuminating and exposes issues with great depth that have been overlooked in the study of the conflict. Much as domestic issues influenced government policies in the United States during the war as well as constantly in US history, domestic issues played an important role in influencing the actions of the Confederate government. Despite the Confederacy being an attempt to create an elite class system of rule, those without a voice in government found a way to be heard partly through their own actions, but also due to the democratic nature of American government. McCurry, the Christopher H. Browne Distinguished Professor of History at the University of Pennsylvania has definitely opened a can of worms with the release of this book. It was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for History in 2011 losing out to Eric Foner’s The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery, itself a great work on the Civil War. Just how important were the actions of women and slaves in the Confederacy during the Civil War? McCurry states that their actions helped drive government policies. Based upon her work as well as others I would say she was correct. Others disagree. I think the thing to consider here is that the Confederacy, despite setting up a government ruled by the elite class of slave owners, was still responsive to the majority of the people inhabiting it. While it was an attempt to create a new nation, it was still required to adhere to some of the principles of the American Revolution. In order to establish the nation, the slave owners were going to have to wage an insurrection and for that they needed the help of the non-slave owners who would compose the majority of its armies. McCurry notes this and shows that this was just the first example of the elites compromising to achieve their goals. No matter what the elites desired, it could only happen with the support of the people in the Confederacy. It would be that support which was critical for the survival of the Confederacy. Without it, the Confederacy had no chance. This is often overlooked. First, many people think the Confederacy enjoyed the support of the people of the slave states. They did not. Of the 15 slave states in 1860, only 11 would join the Confederacy. Of those 11 states, a full third of the white men in them actually opposed secession. From the very beginning, the Confederacy had to deal with an active resistance inside its borders from whites who rejected their authority and slaves who would contribute as little as possible to the Confederate war effort. Later, soldier wives would riot as well as shield deserters. McCurry wrote extensively about these features. Just how much these factors played in the ultimate defeat of the Confederacy is going to be a guess and is open to debate. Did they cause the Confederacy to lose? Not of their own accord, but they did contribute to the defeat of the South over time. There is no doubt that the use of slaves by the Confederate armies was challenged from the very beginning of the war to the final end of it. The facts are undeniable on this matter and McCurry is not the first historian to note this nor will she be the last. The inability of the Confederacy to use its manpower to the maximum capacity was a crippling factor. The issue of slave labor and slave soldiers reflects the deep divisions within the Confederacy and exposes the rotten foundation which the slave owners tried to build their nation upon. All in all I liked the book. As some of the other comments show, the writing style could have been better. She repeated herself in multiple spots. This I think is a reflection of her still emerging writing style. Confederate Reckoning is only her second published book. She has written many articles, but those are different methods of writing compared to books. It takes some time for historians to really find their voice when writing monographs. She does have a Coursera course available, “The History of the Slave South,” which was offered in both 2014 and 2015. I think McCurry does a good job in opening up our eyes to the domestic issues on the Confederate home front. The real question which will be debated is just how much impact they had. I suspect that will be the argument for many.
