        Just give me a 4U somewhere someone else can deal with harvesting the algae and a webcam aimed at it and I can enjoy it just fine from here.

      Come on, you know there’s someone out there trying to work out how to selfhost one of these.

          You should look up “Walstad planted tank”. An all plants aquarium you don’t ever have to mess with (except to trim if you want to)

            I’ve been doing these for years… they don’t work as intended for more than a year or two, and then become pretty unstable. Even the lady who created it went back to low-maintenance (as opposed to zero input) systems after a few years. Still with the dirt and all but not without water movement and stuff.
