If you follow the instructions for an aquatic ecosystem, please don't follow their advice to use goldfish. Goldfish need a big tank because they grow up to a foot long during their 10-15-year lifespan. It would be better to pick a so-called "nano" fish like a rasbora or tetra.
This is cool but it needs more pictures of what the end result could look like.
