    I think someone had mentioned putting oncids into S/H...what do you guys think about that? Are they too fragile-rooted? I'm thinking of this for my mini twinkle oncid... thoughts?

    I have lots of oncids in S/H and they are pretty happy. My Twinkle is still in regular media because it's doing well and I hate to mess with success.

    Keep in mind that I am an underwater who lives in an arid climate. I tend to let the reservoir go dry more often than one is supposed to. So it's not like they are moist 24/7.
