I got my 1st N. hirsuta from a kind forumer. But, unlucky is rat taken it and keep it at their house. Now, I just got the others few weeks ago and im wonder what is the best growing media for them?

I still can't comment on what's the best media yet but I can tell you N. hirsuta usually takes a long time to acclimatise to new environment and they prefer shaded condition.

I grow my hirsuty in my standard mix of sphagnum, expanded clay (or perlite) and as bottom drainage pine bark. It does very well in this mix. It gets strong shaded of several other plants and seems to have no problem with it.
