We will need more info to help.

Are you are talking about 'reed stem' Epis?
And if so, hybrids, species or both?

Hybrids tend to be stockier than species. It could also be a question of 2N (normal) vs 4N (tetraploid).

Thanks for the replys
 

I can show you photos of them

They are reed streamed epid

some in the photo have thick not soft leaves and some have thin soft leaves.

there's one that I repoted and it has thick leaves with one stream while i have a whole pot with soft leaves

That's their nature, depending on their ancestors.

With one plant
 

Thank you for your comment but with one plant some streams that are around the same age. One is soft and bendy and the other is thick and plump

“Soft and bendy” suggests it is not taking up enough water. That can be due to you not providing enough or because the root system is compromised and unable to take it up.

Sounds like it’s time to unpot that one and check.
