Default Questions on a new 90gal Terrarium with Drip Wall using a canister filter

I am new to the Orchid Board and growing orchids in general. I am in the process of converting a 90gal Cichlid tank into a terrarium for orchids. I got some ecoweb from First Ray's and I am going to use it for a drip wall in the back of the tank. I have not decided how I want to do the bottom of the tank. I would like to contain the drip wall into its own sump along with the filter intake. The output is going to be through drilled plastic pipe spanning the top 46inches of the ecoweb.
The filter has a capacity of 250gph and it can push a lot of water. Can mounted orchids handle the considerable water flow down the drip wall? I have seen some posts about this for vivariums, but I am not sure if others have done this for orchids only. Another question concerns whether a mist or fogging system would be needed. It seems the drip wall would provide the necessary humidity in the tank.
