L. anceps to wet? Female

I love this board. It's fascinating to see how so many people grow successfully in different conditions.
Peewee- in help's defense, some of us recommended on the project thread that they stay in moss since that was what the plant was used to- could have been false thinking.
In retrospect, it may have been better to say go ahead and repot.

@help- Peewee's suggestion of large bark mixed with perlite is a great "standby" that works wonderfully.
If you're asking what kind of bark, Monterey/New Zealand/Orchiata bark is considered the best recently as far as quality (water retention, not decomposing as fast as other barks)- but no matter what bark you choose, try to get a larger grade.
Repotme.com has great products and suggestions.
