Best Hydroponic Tree?

Hi,

I'm sorry for being new to this but I was thinking about trying to grow a hydroponic tree. Indoors.

It would be under a 250W or 400W metal halide, probably 6000k. I was hoping for an evergreen species as it will be grown purely for aesthetic reasons. If somebody would be kind enough to help me with a few questions I would really appreciate it.

(a) Do I stand any chance at all?

(b) What species of tree would I stand the best chance with? (Would a mangrove be cheating? Or how about a willow?)

(c) What do you do about algae in the illuminated, neutrient rich water? As I said, this is all for aesthetic reasons.

(d) Any special tips for the species that you suggest?

Thank you in advance and best wishes,

Keith.
