Not inappropriate selections as such, but what you picked needs varying light conditions. You will need bright indirect light for the phals, and a lot of sun for the catts and vanda. Will you be able to do that? Catts need a fairly coarse, fast drying medium. Different people use different things. I think coarse bark is a choice, and for my part I use large CHC. The CHC holds water, but since the pieces are big there is plenty of air circulation so it dries quickly. The vanda will do best growing barefoot, and that means you need to keep up with the watering, especially on hot days.
Love Phal Brother Spring Dancer. I have one of those, and it's my favorite orchid!
