Default Worried about my Aerangis Verdicosa

I didn't have an aeringis do this but I did have a Meiracyllium do it. I
dunked it for a while in Physan, gave it a little more shade for a while,
and packed the clay pot below with sphagnum for increased constant humidity.
I placed one, one time, in a plastic shoe box and lost it. Too much
humidity? No air movement. Anyway, it has recouperated but not yet regrown
to its former self.

I am worried abou my Aerangis Verdicosa. The leaves seem to shrivel then
turn this pinkish
orangy color & drop off. I have lost two other African species the same
way.
What to do?
They get watered twice a week in this warm weather & reside in my slightly
warmer intermediate g/h environment.
Any tips would be appreciated.
Cheers Wendy
