I was worried about the size too, I thought that I could use it in my hygrolon sheet, but now I'm not sure, and noe there are some fungus at the sphagnum moss.... Don't know if I give more water than they need...

You will need to provide air movement to keep the plant's potting medium from developing mold and other unwanted ick.
They need to be moist but not sopping wet. A clay pot will help pull the excess water out after you water. You will want to put the pot on something to protect your furniture or what ever you have it on because the clay pot will be damp.

I just have a Big bowl with stones and water, and the orchid on the stones, at this way, I have always the moss moist but not soggy wet, or that is what I think, and the medium have more humidity for the water that is evapored of the bowl.
What do you think?
That's alright or do I have to change something?
Thank you for your help!
