First successful rooting

I have successfully rooted a Linda Campbell. I rooted it in Coir in a clear plastic glass. This is a first. In about a week it will be ready to be transplanted. As I am new at this please help me to grow this into a mature plant by answering these questions. As I don't want to lose this cutting all suggestions and advice will be much appreciated.

1. When I transplant it into another pot do I remove the coir? If so what is the correct way to do this? Should I soak it in transplant solution?

2. I will be using compost as the potting medium. Should I mix it with garden soil? If so at what ratio?

3. Should I add slow release 10-10-10 fertilizer to the mix?

4. Should I still keep it enclosed? It is now in an aquarium with a glass lid under a 48-inch florescent light.

5. How often do I water it?

6. How do I fertilize it, with what kind and how?

I will be much obliged if the answers are in sequence.

Thank you.
