OK...I have a crazy idea...
I live in Miami, and was thinking about setting up an outdoor mangrove tank. something like a 50gal+ Rubbermaid type tub or acrylic tank with sand or miracle mud as a substrate for the mangroves, with live rock, and lots of invertebrates, cukes, sponges maybe some small snapper etc...the idea is to create or replicate an outdoor mini-lagoon with natural light.
I'd place it in a sunny part of my terrace, place a few powerheads to circulate the water, would I need a skimmer and WD filter?
Is this possible? anybody have any experience with this??
Ideas, Pics, schematics are all welcome!!
