Ah! Found the little thing! It's a slug! I emptied the pot and sifted through all the medium and it's a little slimer.

My first neofinetia! It's so little!

What should the sphangum moss feel like before watering?

I just got this tiny baby cleisocentron gokusingii mounted on some cork bark.

I used a bark mixture that might be too chunky. Possible issues?

I bought what I think is a Beallara orchid from Trader Joe's that was planted in soil about 2 weeks ago. The media wasnt drying out fast enough, in my newb opinion, so I unpotted it for transplant.
