Orchids can certainly grow in clear pots. Most growers avoid them because they deteriorate faster than the green ones in sunlight. That should not be a big concern for you.

I am not concerned about algae in the pots. If you grow in Florida, Hawaii or other semi tropical environment, we have algae on all our orchids. I have pots with thick moss coverings and many with ferns growing out of the same pot. I do not understand why some people think it is harmful.
