As I've said before all of mine are in clear pots with like 3-4 holes in bottom. That's to let the liquid out. Not to let air in. That's what the coarse bark is for. I've not lost a single Phal to rot yet - lost a bunch to hail, but that's another story
Clear pots allow you to withhold watering till the mix is getting dry. Thus, there isn't really a need for slots, etc.
