i use lava rock (you can get that at just about any fish store or rock yard for cheap) and a butt load of the little "media tunnels". or i've heard of people using the gravel that you put in a tank as media also. never tried that but it sounds ok....

the regular eheim substrat works, too, and it's on sale at DrsFosterandSmith.com.... just need to make sure you rinse it out on a regular basis. the pro substrat is a round ball designed to prevent plugged filter beds.

One bag of the bio-glass (3L) works great in AC110's. Just rinse and drop in. Replaces everything else except the sponge at the bottom.

Careful with the lava rock, there are many different types and some are bad.

you can do 2 w/d but they have to be bulk headed together, But 1 is all you need. Stuff the cans with pot scrubbers,DIY filter floss pads & retickulated foam pads.
