I've been reading about this lately. As with the bees, I think it's something I won't be able to get really going on until we either get a piece of property or if the guy across the street buys the property that the golem is sitting on, and lets me do it there.

So, this will be a new tag. I have a picture in my mind of what I want to do -- start small and all that. It's a biological system, some have called it a "living machine" -- I don't like the "machine" part.

It works like this: we would grow duckweed and algae to feed the fish. We can eat the duckweed and algae, too; it's very nutrient rich. The fish pee and poop goes to the plants -- there is a fungus that's introduced to the plant growing medium which breaks down the fish waste into usable plant food. The water, now cleaned of waste, is returned to the fish.
