Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I don't yet have a saltwater aquarium, but I plan on building my own in the next 2-3 years. So right now I am in the research/planning stage.
Is it possible to build a "self correcting" aquarium? I am an engineering student right now so if it is possible I think I could figure out a way to build it.
Would it be possible to build a system that can automatically correct pH, nitrate, ammonia...etc?
I know you can't plan on unexpected failure of certain parts, but taking that out of the equation could it be done?
I'm mainly interested in this as a safety net for times I go on vacations or can't attend to the tank. You can't always trust people to know what they are doing with your tank.
Opinions?
