Thoughts on if these would do well in my setup

[PlumCrazy]

Hello! I’ve had my orchidarium up and running for about 4 months now. I installed a misting system about a week ago, and requested gift certificates for orchids for my birthday, so I’m ready to shop! I’d really appreciate any of you weighing in on if what I’m thinking about getting is a good fit. My setup conditions:

Size: 40” W x 21” D x 40” H. Has plexiglass top.

Light: LEDs provide bright light at the top of the tank, and low light at the bottom. It’s on a 12/12 hr cycle for summer.

Ventilation: Two small computer fans kick on 5x a day for 15 mins. Small air holes drilled in sides throughout the tank.

Temp: Room temperature (around 72 in the day, 68 at night, cooler in winter, and we avoid A/C and heat when it is comfortable to do so. I may add a heat source to the tank in winter).

Tray: The bottom of the tank is filled with LECA. Currently, water doesn’t sit in the bottom because I haven’t need to have that much in there to keep the humidity where I want it.

Humidity: I’ve been running the mister in the morning for 1 ½ minutes, which keeps the humidity mainly between 70-85%, which my current orchids like.

The plants I want:

Trisetella hoeijeri
Bulbophyllum masdevalliaceum
Bulbophyllum frostii
Cirrhopetalum (Bulbophyllum) biflorum (Java)
Dendrochilum aurantiacum
Epidendrum (Nanodes) Mini Creeper
Gastrochilus bellinus
Epidendrum (Nanodes) schizoclinandrium (schlechterianum)
Masdevallia prodigiosa
Masdevallia auropurpurea
Dendrobium quadrangulare


Looking at purchasing them already mounted if available.

Of course I chose these because I like the way they look, but also because based on the descriptions I’ve found of them, they seem like they’d do well in the conditions I have, which is really the most important thing. If you have any experience with any of them, please let me know what you think. When I built my tank, it was with the agreement that any new orchids (or other plants) I got would go in there, and not further clutter up the house.
