I think I have everything I need but I still have a few questions. I have bigger pots to repot it but should I leave it in the substrate it's in at the moment or remove that and go with 100% sphagnum moss?

Also, when watering, should I place it in a tray and water from the bottom or water from the top?

I'd keep the substrate it's in and just pop that into the moss.

I'd put it in a tray and water from the bottom and make sure it doesn't dry out.

I assume de - ionised water has no calcium? I'd just use rainwater as it's cheaper :)

Careful, you might end up getting more of them :D
