Default Mini greenhouse set-up

I don't really know anything about terrariums or vivariums, but I acquired some young plants at an orchid fair on Saturday, and since they're not ready for 'displaying' around the apartment, I created a little growing space for them.

It's a little mini greenhouse with a layer of perlite in the bottom (it's easier to stand the pots on than hydroleca and I think it looks nicer). The little lights are 3W LEDs (2700 K each) on a timer. They are only to supplement the light - the light from the window where they are can get a little dull.

You can see from the hygrometer/thermometer I'm getting around 21 degrees C and 80% humidity. The temps drop to about 17-18 at night.

I think it's cute, but I'm sure there are plenty of issues with it. Any suggestions for improving will be greatly appreciated!
