My first compartment is biohome and a japmat under it. The GS live among the BH. 2nd compartment is filter wool and CR under it. 3rd is CR and then sponge mat. Any spare CR is in the pump compartment.
I used to get choking problem when I put filter wool in the first compartment. |

Should I put air pump/stone in sump? Heard that it will benefit the bacteria.
I've read some even put sponge filter |

Since you mentioned adding air pumps perhaps you might want to consider K1 moving media too. Many youtube demos to watch. |

Will need to add a light in the sump for the plants. Might as well float some money plant in you main tank.
