Neither. Both answers are incorrect.
Low to moderate air circulation is fine.
I don't know any orchids that can survive no air circulation.
High air circulation dries them out too fast, and these guys don't like to be dry.
They like consistent, even moisture, with moderate to high humidity.
Lepanthes telipogoniflora is an intermediate to warm growing Lepanthes that likes bright shade.

Great growing. I love this orchid and yours is looking good.
I must try it one day, I had a choice of this or Lephanthes calodictyon and went with the Lephanthes. Still need to get one of these one day.
