Reddit mentions: The best floor-standing fountains

I've never run Carrion Crown, but a few ideas of mine to help out:

• Get lots of incense. Depending on where you get it, it's generally like 6 sticks for a dollar or so at our cheapo stores. Burning it not only makes the game-area smell fantastic, but coupled with dim lighting, the smoke would create a cinematic vibe. You could easily do the same thing with a fog machine or one of those mist fountains
  
  
• Candles are always a great addition, as well as any other types of lights, even stringing up halloween lights or something.
  
  
• Ambiance tracks; Not just music. Wiring a laptop or something to a speaker set and layering your tracks with youtube videos like these is always a great effect.
  
  Beyond that, I don't have a lot more advice, and I'm assuming the adventure path has tips on storytelling.

OK so I just set up this small patio system, as a learning experience. So far I like how it looks and sounds! Plan is to build a larger one (maybe 100gal) if all goes well here.... assuming my patio balcony can handle 100 gallons.

I used this cheaply made Chinese fountain (it was $110 when I bought it; I wouldn't buy it now at any price but would build my own, now that I see how it works). It has a pump in the bottom that runs water through a tube to the top barrel, which overflows to the second, which overflows back to the third. Plastic lined throughout. Unknown toxicity....

There is hydroton in the top two layers, held in by netting or black permeable 'grow bags'; the bottom layer has 3 small goldfish, a couple rocks, an aquatic plant and one nerite snail. I started with a few gallons of water from an established aquarium.

Basil and watercress are doing fine, the others I did not expect to do well frankly (fish are very small!), but tomatoes doing better than expected - flowering and setting (one!) fruit, and the cucumber made some flowers but leaves are yellowing a bit.

Lessons so far:
There is not enough depth at the top compared to the 'spouts' to keep a top layer of hydroton dry. Will have to make overflow holes from the top two lower down, if/when algae becomes an issue.

It's set to a 15-min-on-per-hour cycle using a timer. After setting it up realized the top two barrels would not actually drain, as designed!.... so drilled a small hole (siliconed in a small tube) so that each barrel empties slowly through its bottom as well; when the fountain stops it seems to stop trickling at about the 30 minute mark, and starts up again ten or 15min later.

Seems to have iron deficiency, not sure about other nutrients.... My main goal is to grow greens that you can harvest leaf by leaf, such as bok choy in the winter, rather than fruits like tomatoes here, but not sure what to grow in the heat of summer besides basil....

Have not figured out any good way to incorporate solids management in this kind of design. Should probably at least find a foam filter of some kind to put over the pump intake

Water fountains are probably the best bang for the buck when it comes to white noise. Homes along freeways often use them. Buy a decent entry level one like this http://www.amazon.com/Kenroy-Home-50007WDG-Outdoor-Fountain/dp/B002SUA0TG/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hg_14?ie=UTF8&refRID=05E9Q826D38TJJ2M3P2B or something more in line with your tastes, just make sure its substantial. The water noise will block out most of the noise. Good luck.

I think that's a bubble water wall
