Buddha belly bamboo care, help me save it

Hey folks! I have a lot of experience with succulents and threes, but recently I’ve visited gardening center which had few bamboos, some of them was already dried and dead but this one looked like had some chances, since I’ve seen some green spots on it and it’s tried to push out some new leaves.

I need your opinion of how to save it, because I never worked with bamboo. Roots and part of the trunk was rotten, so I’ve cut most of it and dead moist parts of the trunk until I’ve seen green parts and sealed it. I don’t know which soil it needs so for now I just put it to the mix of akadama, pumice, little compost and perlite.

Any criticism/suggestions are welcome.
