This is the update.
Some white mildew has established as you can see. However, it mainly stayed at the bottom on the moss. Since removing the moss the whole tank has far less mould, so now I'm waiting for moss to spore at the bottom of the tank. It needs topping up every other day which is a pain.
I removed the masdevallia as it threw out loads of new leaves, but then my fan moved and the tank warmed up a little and it dropped three. The Masdie honestly just doesn't fit in there, neither did the jewel orchid. Both are still alive, just not in there. Both Lepanthes has gone crazy. The Coral hybrid has flowered a LOT, its currently not flowering much though. The Retrepia flowers the most though, and has a few spikes now, unfortunately no new leaves though. The Aerangis is putting its second new leaf our which is great too. The Dracula has 3-4, new leaves, I'm hoping for a spike soon. I plan on getting another small pleurothallis to put inside a rock at the back. I'm also still looking for a small, lower light bulbo to go in there but I haven't found anything yet.
The one thing I'd change is almost no organic matter, including aquarium wood. I wish I'd just used ohko stones only as the wood encouraged the mould and I think made everything worse early on.
