i dont think putting a sponge thingy will be a good idea.
what if after setting up everything, fish and plants like your tank, then sudd those sponge start to grow bad bacteria?
You need to take out everything and start from zero?  cry.gif
I am using crushed lava rock as base layer. Works well until now. Save me lots of ADA.
i could get lava rock for rm6 per kg at Bangi here but lately it is out of stock ><
Last month i check at 88p***mart, they are selling at rm18.50 per peice  rclxub.gif

wah..that is indeed expensive. Yea...guess that sponge is not good idea. Headache to revamp the whole tank again after settling down it. Mean i have to laydown lava rocks as the most bottom then only ADA right. Bangi seem quite far ler.
