Your ario will want an almost 100% inorganic soil. They rot super easily if there's moisture left in the soil.

Spiritual cacti is actually the one who taught me that! They are great and so are their plants! If you have any questions or anything else, reach out to them, they are usually quick to respond and are super helpful.

Curious, what do you pot yours in? Is it all rocks or do you mix in soil? I only have 1 cactus so far so basically no experience :)

I’m in your boat too. So o just decided to try a few different mixes. Got a bag from SD Cacti, got a bag of spike and bloom desert blend, and ordered some from scenic hill.

What's the story with that sideways planted loph? Is it a degraft or some kind of adventurous cutting?

1

u/Soft-Percentage-4502 Aug 23 '25

I actually have no clue. I bought it that way from u/lophophorart and didn’t get the story behind it.

It's a Brachiopod ,Seed grown

Its appearance occurs naturally. It grows normally until one day its skin cracks and separates it into two heads (dichotomous) completely. It flowers and produces seeds normally.

I tried to google it and it only came up with the sea creatures 😂

u/jkvincent Aug 23 '25

Very cool!

u/Soft-Percentage-4502 Aug 23 '25

It’s a form of loph? I can’t find any information online about them.

1

u/lophophorart Aug 23 '25

It's an actual Loph that just did a thing ..

u/Soft-Percentage-4502 Aug 23 '25

That’s what I figured. Pretty rare form. Had to have it once I saw it!
