There are many recipes but when I used bio-active substrate I used to do
Potting soil 35%
Coco fiber 35%
Sand 10%
Grind up leaves 20%
You start laying a plastic bag at the bottom of your enclosure, lay a light diffuser on the top of it, add a plastic canvas on the top of that and than add your substrate.
The light diffuser and canvas serve as drainage.
