Default Mounted Masdevalia rolfiana in my 55 gallon vivarium *MINI*

So this is my first orchid mount, that I do myself.
I had to move it from its first home, my 29 gallon viv, becuase I believed it was too warm with temps above 79 almost all the time. Its leaves were suffering.
I used aquarium grade silicone to stick the plant on the malaysian drift wood.
Then I stuck it in my 55 gallon viv in my office were I keep the temps low with two air conditioners. Temps rarely go above 75 and I find they reach 60 first thing in the morning.

Here are the pics. The plant came out a little tilted .





Hope you all approve!
