Journal contd....
Apart from salinity, pH and simulating tide, the other challenge was to maintain high humidity. Sundarbans has humidity ranges from 70% to 95% mostly. the minimum humidity is 70%.
The humidity outdoors in Gurgaon is less than 50% To ensure that the humidity inside the tank is 70%+ I cover the tank with 'Green house covering net' (http://www.ebay.in/itm/301186961022?ssP ... 1497.l2649) This gives me close to what I desire Many of you wanted a FTS. The FTS quality won't be good because of ambient light (verandah) But here they are....
First the shots during high tide... high tide from up close The difference between high and low tide is 6 inches and 200 litres....
here are some low tide pics low tide up and close mudflats exposed during low tides

The tank is very close to nature.
