i have thought long and hard about building a self contained monotub. im currently using two SG fruiting chambers with an aquarium air pump. i placed two 18 in air stones at the bottom of the chamber and used aquarium rocks to layer the bottom, approx 2 in deep. i drilled holes in two sides of the chamber and added a drip shield made out of a piece of modified roof cap vent,not pictured (very effective and relatively inexpensive, available at your local home-depot or Lowe's) with the air pump running constant this has been a very effective chamber for fruiting. i am working with grains and will soon be modifying these tubs for use as mono tubs. this is my thoughts as to how i will make this work...

basically the setup will remain the same with a few added pieces, i would add some extra rocks to allow for more water storage and drill a overflow hole about 1/2 in below the top of the rocks. this will ensure that the substrate will not be sitting directly in water. water will then be added to the chamber until it reaches the overflow. i will place two pieces of 2 in PVC pipe about 5-6 in long evenly spaced from the walls of the chamber on top of the rocks, then i will add colonized grain to the chamber making sure not to drop any grain into the PVC pipe as this will be providing air movement and humidity to the chamber, it will also serve as a means of replenishing water supply. a thin casing layer will then be added to the top of the substrate. im assuming that the presence of water alone will keep humidity at more that adequate levels so i may have to place a timer on the air pump to reduce the amount of water condensing and dripping on the top of the substrate. im fairly confident that this would be extremely effective and relatively low maintenance, but i am no expert perhaps a trusted cultivator could give some input.
this is my FC setup as it sits now.

they are sitting on rocks (about 1/2 above the water), obviously you missed that part of the post.

i sorta agree..... in the 80s we automated everything to the max, and some really giant systems....
now, we mod nothing. everything straight. no automation.
for fungi that is......

cacti we mod everything, but do not automate.
peeps dont realize, a bunch of automted stuff, is a chore, and a parts game on its own, and if ya dont clean it perfectly after a contam grow....it wil haunt ya.
think about it, we see an "auto martha" a week here. wheres all the sustained auto marthas from LAST month? answer is, equip contams, peeps fail to clean it or dump it, it wipes out grows......
ya i know, some peeps get lucky, and some are clean. now reconcile that with the weekly auto martha count......... and the outcome over time.
if half the aut0 systems, put out 10% of what they expect, we would all be neck deep in boomers.........

I've got a full time job and two kids so any time i can shave off of my mushroom cultivation is pretty key. also, if nobody tries anything new then how are we supposed to improve our methods? im just going to stop right here because this is beginning to stray off topic.
nice tub tiger, I appreciate your ambition and experimentation.

if your out for time , energy , and ease of supply, the answer is in violet tek, not automation.
as for new stuf, ya new stuff is great. peeps build new types of auto boxes here daily. some even grow a shroom or 2. some even last a time or 2.... but , we know how most of them end.

I wish you luck on your air pump adventures!
I never could dial stuff in right with it, and it was more effort to clean the hoses and what not.
I did not come to bash and roll my eyes, I would like to see someone dial this in

Those are looking really nice! Seems like you may have that dialed in pretty well.
