I got my first Stelis late last year in full bloom mounted on treefern and I love it! I'm keeping it in a fishtank sitting in a tray of water as that's how the person I got it from was growing it, in fact it even had algae on the bottom of the treefern piece..

It has rebloomed since being in my fishtank so I'd say yeah they are good choice for the viv/terrarium if grown
epiphytically.

Here's a link to a blog entry I made on mine [the site was down and I obviously need to reupload some pics] it's a Stelis porschiana:
