Is it really still alive and not dead?!! Pics

When you water, water it well - so that the water pours out the bottom of the pot. Then, don't water again until the moss is almost dry (but not crispy) You can use a wood skewer to find out about moisture a couple of inches down - if it comes out damp, wait a couple more days and test again. If it comes out dry, it's time to water One could prescribe some number of days, but it would be only pure luck if it were correct (because it depends on the pot, the media, the humidity in your house, light, temperature... any number of factors that will be different at your house than at mine) But other than giving it some water, keep all the other conditions the same - wait to change anything until after it revives.

But as far as water goes, the plant wants a wet-dry cycle - and air around the roots. When the water pours of of the bottom of the pot, it pulls air into the root zone. Then as the water evaporates, it is replaced by air (which is still nice and humid) So that's why you want to water well, then let it dry out.
