This is my Idea for a hydro setup. I have my 55gal tank w/light. I would empty the tank to just about 1/2" below the surface of the gravel. Put wallpaper on the outside of the tank to prevent light leaks and reflect as well. Use an oscillating clip-on fan. Would I be able to throw a couple seeds in that setup and have good results? Anything I can do a little different to make it work? Lemme know:jointsmile:

Ummm...... no. You'd have root rot from them sitting in stagnant water. Why not just use one of the million+ proven methods around here?

nope, you can make it work if u got the time/effort, and got a water pump, tubing, a lid, netpots, media, and covered the glass completely to keep light out of the water
