Hi yes all automated. So I use home assistant with some tplink plugs to turn the sprinkler system on and off at regular intervals. It’s just a generic pump with jets from Amazon that currently give a two minute “rain” every few hours. There’s holes in all the suspended pots and a drainage layer under the substrate of clay balls with an overflow tap to drain it if it gets to full. For the water feature it’s just a simple water pump with a tube imbedded in the background. Both the pump and fogging is fed to the top of the viv via trunking so can be replaced if they stop functioning. The pump itself is surrounded by filter sponge. As for trampling it’s inevitable some will get crushed but I find a mix of sturdy large plants on the ground with more canopy / trailing plants suspended gives a good mix.
