Sponge Filters in the Planted Tank

[tiger terror]

Would I like to here about experiences with these for filtration in the planted tank..Currently in the process of cycling a 10g,using 2 aquatop sponge filters along with a solarflare led fixture(3w LEDs-2 6500k-2 10000k-1 blue)...also no heater in this setup. This will be a planted shrimp only tank as well..

There's no problem with the sponge filters themselves, but they might be pretty mean offgassers if you wanted to pursue CO2.

My fixture should throw the tank into low-medium lighting,so crpts,rotalla indica,trident fern,flame moss on dw,green cabomba etc...will do pps-pro along with daily doses of glut...
