Local River concept art lets you grow your own vegetables, fish

if you really hate our world of mass-processed foods, this might be of interest - an aquarium designed to be nearly self-sustaining. The waste products from the fish make the plants grow, and the plants remove the fish waste products so the aquarium remains healthy.

In reality this isn't much different from any aquarium, which relies on bacteria to dispose of the fish waste, but this is a particularly elegant and eye-catching idea. I think having a garden of edible food as a consequence of your fish tank is, well, a bit more amazing than bacteria.

The idea of eating the fish when they grow big enough to eat, though, seems a little hard. As others have said in the discussion, generally people don't eat their pets.

Still a cool idea and a very interesting piece of concept art
