What do you guys think of a saltwater paludarium? With a beach setup and foam baffles covered in silicone to hold back water from the plants. This sound like a good idea?

I think it’d be cool to do like, live rock with foam in between the sides to make the baffle and then cover that in silicone and press sand into the silicone. Then have more lagoon themed fauna and then land hermit crabs or fiddler crabs. Maybe even make a tide pool or something.This is actually something I’ve been thinking about ever since I’ve know what a paludarium is

Which I’ve planned out an idea for with a reservoir and two pumps. But one wouldn’t be necessaryThe question is how to simulate tidal movements
I couldn’t, I’m sixteen and on a tight budget lolInteresting idea. Look into a step down tank. I think this would work well for your idea.
That’s the issue. I’d say spraying down the tank with RODI water daily but that could only take care of so much. Also what is the source of the tidal zone smell? Bacteria/mold/fungus I’m guessing?How do you overcome salt spray and creep. I imagine there would also be "tidal zone" smell.
