This is an interesting design. I can’t think of any other way to grow algae and promote root rot in a faster more efficient manner.

Bravo, OP. I assume you are a scientist or marine biologist. While this design would work well in your profession, it really has zero value in cannabis. It’s obvious you don’t grow cannabis and that you were just seeing if it could be useful for cannabis. Once year learn more about growing you will see that this is possibly the poorest design in the history of hydroponic growing. But I do commend you for bringing technology from your completely unrelated profession to cannabis to see if it would work.

I encourage you and others to inform the cannabis cultivation community of technology used in other fields, I would just suggest that you read up on cannabis cultivation before proposing ineffective solutions.
