I got a question, would the same setup work with the same effects if you had the plants in a sump instead of the main tank?
Yes, agreed with what James said above. I was avoiding that approach because I want the plants to not require lighting or effort from me in any way. (I kill plants) I may go more high tech but not on a small "fun" tank.
And for the rtc, aro etc.. guys, everything is relative if you have a goal. It's not hard to pump to a seperate source on a larger scale if you wanted to. Really rough example being a big tub, grow rack and a pacu:
pacu = poops (pumped to grow rack)
poop = feeds plants in grow rack
plants = grow fruit
fruit = feeds pacu
repeat
^ I know this is not a great or even real world example but would be great if someone were able to dial in the details. I really want to attempt a system in the near future that is self sustaining or as close to it as possible.
