So this is kinda crazy and I am not actually doing it for money reason but lets talk about its possibility.
If you are like me you hate loud tanks and hate humidity that damages things. So you can make your tank silent with customer filter setup or canisters, but you can't stop all the humidity you can reduce it.
So my though is using lids with gaskets and screws, to create a tank thats sealed 100%. The screws are so you can open the tank and clean it.
So I hear it now you have to have gas exchange, we could get this from a sump located remotely but then you have humidity in that location. So my idea was 4 water storage containers 2 pumps.
First storage container is one of those nice setting tanks Koi ponds use. This would get the big stuff, next this drains to a tank with heaters this heater tank will have water level that is 3/4 of the tank.
In the heater tank there would b a circulation pump that sucks from the bottom and returns up top above the water line causing lots of agitation. Then the top of this tank would have two openings one as an air intake with a fan and carbon air filter, the second would be an exhaust with carbon air filter and a air dryer.
So new air comes in and old air goes out and gets dryer to remove humidity.
This tank then drains into the mechanical filter, which does the normal, and is from their drained to the bio filter, which is then pumped back to the tank(s).
Since all the tanks would have all returns and drains below the water line, there should be no sound at all, there should be no humidity, and the air exchanger would dry the air remove humidity in the gas exchanger tank. If you still ran into Desolved O2 problems you can inject O2 just like you would CO2, since they make controllers for both.
