In the bottom level of my Fluval I put Filter Floss,
above the floss in the same bucket I put carbon or zeocarb. In the next level I put 1 pound of pure peat granules full to the brim. In the top level is biorings in the cleanest water. Then the sponges on the side of course.
In my eheim filter it is a much different setup though.
