Just cram the stolon into the hole as far as you think is good- the roots will grow from the base of the plant and attach themselves to the rock.
Those basket pots aren't really necessary, in my opinion- the same effect could be achieved by just carving out a hole or inserting a regular pot. If you need them, though, they're often at hydroponic stores.

Those Tillandsia could probably stand to be a bit higher up, nearer the lights. The creeping fig will be everywhere in a few weeks whether you want it to be or not- it's vigorous, to say the least.
I think that your orchid might be Macodes petola, but I'm not 100% sure.

the orchid is just being held down on a little ledge by the moss. Will that be ok? or should i make a hole in the fake rock for it too?

I think it should be fine. I'm under the impression that these live in rocky areas and sort of ramble across the surface.

Dustin, The baskets can be found at your local pet super store. If you step over to the aquatic plant section and ask real nice, they just root out the dead plants and give them to you.

Good idea, Dan.
What kind of lid have you got on that tank, Dustin?
