hmmm...That is probably heading in the right direction. I currently have my LR rubble in that chamber. On top of which are my carbon and Posban bags. And sitting on top of those is a temporary piece of plexiglass drilled with a series of holes. That allows the overflow water to disperse over the media bags.
