Look around for bulb pans - more width, less depth (probably you'll need to find them online) Another trick, if you have a pot that is wide enough but too deep, invert a small plastic pot in the middle, under your plant. It will create an air pocket in the middle of the pot that otherwise would hold too much water and not enough air. Or use baskets (plastic or wood) to get air flow, as well as a better width-to-height ratio.
Orchids such as Catts that grow on a rhizome will march across the pot... that just how they grow. (I have found that they grow best after they escape over the edge of the pot, which is why I am going more and more to baskets, the plants are telling me that they didn't want to be in a pot in the first place)
