If the ghost wood is holding any water it is probably the problem. The one on the rock would be doing well because the rock isnt holding any water on the plant. The leaves of bromeliades (tillandias included) are very interesting because the ends of the leaves can live or a long time after the plant has died. For example I placed a bromeliad with 5 of 6 pups outside. some crazy animal came and ate the heart of the plant and left one leaf. that leaf is still green after three weeks!



To fix your problem you could try to increase the ventalation around that plant or mount it on a small piece of wood or even a small stone that doesn't absorb water. Then mount it in the location you want the plant. As long as the plant is able to dry out and is not sitting in any water it should be ok. Another thing to try would be to avoid spraying the plant when you mist. chances are the humidity in your tank is high enough to keep it healthy.
