From what I've read, they are very much like growing orchids. They are epiphytes, and don't really need much soil at all. Just enough to anchor them, and collect some water at the roots, but they do need humidity, and the "tanks" should always have some water in them. I mist mine while watering my mounted orchids. So far, it seems to work.
