Aquatic Plant Central - View Single Post - Regarding DIY Filtration

Friends, also kindly advice if I should use some thing else as a filter media, instead of the nylon sponges ?

Also can I use a single large jet of water instead of the spray bars ? Will it be as effective or less ?

Also I'm afraid that the filter media here will get completey dry whenever I'm maintaining the Eheim 2217 - will this immediately kill my good bacteria ?

Please guide me...
