So i was thinkin about ideas for more natural biotype and what i would do if i had unlimited funds. this is what i came up with.
the dimentions are kinda meaningless and just more to give it a since of space. any way the fresh area would be set up like a fresh water mangrove swamp with an amazon river tropicals. the marine zone would be reef of course and the brackish zone with puffers and such.
the fresh zone would have a a filteration loop equal to the volume of the zone and all make up water would enter on that end.
filteration on the marine zone would be 2 masive skimmers, so one could be taken off line at a tiem for cleaning and not lose filteration, and water movement would be accomplished with several closed loops.
while water movement with in the zones would be easy to acomplish, along the z and x axis (normal right hand 3D axis system, Z vertical, X comming out of the page, y left and right, for those who dont know) how could one move water from zone to zone, along the y axis, affectivly with out semi permiable membranes. the entire point of the system is to process waste in a more natural way with the fresh acting as a prefilter for the marine system and the brackish sytem with seagrass providing phytoplankton.
any one out there have an idea how this might be accomplished, or have any ideas that could potentially work, hey we can all dream right. :thumbsup:
