Syngonium podophyllum, commonly known as the Arrowhead Plant, is a popular and versatile vining plant with distinctive arrow-shaped leaves that transition in color and shape as the plant matures. Native to tropical regions of Central and South America, it is an excellent choice for bioactive setups, where its fast growth and attractive foliage can enhance the visual appeal of vivariums or terrariums.

Care Instructions

LIGHT. Prefers bright, indirect light, but it can tolerate low light conditions. However, the plant will produce more vibrant and lush growth when provided with bright, filtered light. In lower light, the leaves may become smaller and the plant may grow slower. In bioactive environments, position your Arrowhead Plant near a light source, but avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves.

SOIL. Requires a well-draining, loose soil mix that retains moisture but allows excess water to escape. A mix of coconut coir, perlite, and orchid bark is ideal, mimicking its natural tropical habitat and providing good aeration for the roots. In bioactive setups, this type of soil will support the plant while creating a hospitable environment for decomposers like isopods and springtails.

WATERING. Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water the plant when the top inch of soil begins to dry out. Arrowhead Plants are susceptible to root rot if the soil remains waterlogged for too long. In bioactive setups, the decomposers like springtails and isopods will help keep the moisture levels balanced and break down any excess organic material, so over-watering is less of a concern, but be mindful to avoid stagnant water.

HUMIDITY. Thrives in high humidity (60% and above), making it perfect for bioactive environments. The naturally humid conditions in vivariums or terrariums are ideal for the Arrowhead Plant, and maintaining consistent humidity will promote healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Regular misting or the use of a shallow water dish can help maintain humidity levels.

TEMPERATURE. Prefers warm temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C). It can tolerate slightly cooler conditions but should be protected from temperatures below 50°F (10°C), as cold drafts can cause damage. In bioactive setups, maintain a stable, warm environment for optimal growth.

FERTILIZATION. During the growing season (spring and summer), feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. In fall and winter, reduce feeding as the plant's growth slows down. In bioactive environments, the presence of decomposers like isopods and springtails helps create a nutrient-rich substrate, potentially reducing the need for frequent fertilization.

Cohabitation with Bioactive Organisms

ISOPODS. Isopods are excellent companions for Syngonium podophyllum in bioactive setups. They help break down plant debris and organic matter, maintaining a healthy substrate. As the Arrowhead Plant sheds leaves, isopods will help decompose the fallen foliage, keeping the soil clean and nutrient-rich without compaction.

SPRINGTAILS. Springtails thrive in the humid, moist environment that the Arrowhead Plant prefers. They feed on mold, fungi, and decaying organic matter, helping to prevent fungal growth on the plant and ensuring that the substrate stays healthy. Their presence keeps the roots free from mold and other potential issues.

Soil and Maintenance Tips

SUBSTRATE. A loose, well-draining mix is essential. Coconut coir, perlite, and orchid bark provide the necessary aeration and moisture retention for the plant's roots, ensuring healthy growth. A thin layer of activated charcoal can be added at the bottom of the tank to help with filtration and odor control.

HUMIDITY CONTROL. Maintaining the appropriate humidity level is key to success with Syngonium podophyllum. In bioactive environments, use a shallow water dish or mist the tank regularly to keep the humidity levels above 60%. The combination of the plant's natural preference for moisture and the work of decomposers ensures the substrate stays healthy and balanced.

TRIMMING. The Arrowhead Plant can grow quickly, and regular pruning will help control its size and shape. Cutting back the stems will encourage bushier growth and prevent it from becoming too leggy. The cuttings can be propagated in water or soil, allowing you to expand your collection or share with friends.

PEST CONTROL. Syngonium podophyllum is relatively pest-resistant, but in bioactive setups, springtails and isopods can help control any small pests like aphids, mealybugs, or scale insects by feeding on their larvae and eggs. If pests do appear, inspect the plant regularly and manually remove any visible issues.


With its unique arrow-shaped leaves and adaptable nature, Syngonium podophyllum ‘Arrowhead Plant’ is a fantastic choice for bioactive setups. It thrives in humid conditions and works well with decomposers like springtails and isopods, creating a balanced, sustainable environment for both the plant and the ecosystem. By providing the proper care with adequate light, humidity, and soil, this plant will flourish and add a lush, tropical touch to your vivarium or terrarium.

Good pillows
Color: Cooling Blue Cover, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
Takes some getting used to but and the cooling doesn’t last very long in my opinion, but overall amazing comfy pillows. The materials are good and are washable. I mostly stopped waking up with a stiff neck and back.

Believe the Reviews
Color: Cooling Blue Cover, Size: King (Pack of 2)
I purchased these pillows because we were in need of new pillows, I previously had allswell pillows which were from walmart and they were good to start but now they tragically became very sparse and it started to effect my sleep so I saw these after careful review on other pillows and reviews I came across these and I saw some reviews and videos and I ordered them.. first they are king size we ordered they are perfect for the bed, they are plump and soft, they are memory foam which has always worked out for me for support and kept it’s shape these are great it did have a little smell I guess from packaging but other than that they are a huge upgrade from what we had before! I’m excited because they are cooling too! for the price point can’t beat it and this is coming from someone who was about to spend money on a purple pillow this will be good for now definitely buy it.

Inconsistent
Color: Cooling Blue Cover, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
Ive ordered two different batches of these pillows, the first was a 2 pack, the second batch was a 4 pack. The pillows that came in the 2 pack have a different quality to them. The memory foam feels thicker, takes long to depress and to spring back to form. It offers more resistance, a heavier odor (at the start), and was the pillow that I fell in love with. Things changed when I ordered the 4 pack a couple months later. There was an inconsistency between the foam in these two different batches. both sets of pillows are comfortable. The first batch being firmer means I had to remove more foam before it became comfortable but the 2nd batch being more springy, I was able to keep all the foam inside. I docked a couple stars because I’m not able to provide a consistent experience with these pillows across all three beds in my home. If you need a pillow, order a set and be happy. If you want a bunch of memory foam pillows throughout your house, maybe look elsewhere as these may not all be identical.

Very cool and comfortable pillows. Great value.
Color: Cooling Blue Cover, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
These pillows are everything described on the site. They do retain shape and don’t flatten out after sleeping all night. They are nice and clean looking and comfortable. The fit on my king size bed is perfect cause I prefer the size to king size. Haven’t had to wash them yet but I have had other pillows with the same material inside and the wash ability is great.

Great pillow
Color: Cooling Blue Cover, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
The pillows feel great. Being able to remove portions of the interior allowed me and my wife to have a perfect fit. They do stay cool which seems to have helped with my restlessness.
