you are welcome. just because you've read and know some tips doesn't mean that you are prepared to start. i can tell you this by the list of equipment that you are proposing to use. i'm not knocking you. you should of seen what i've started with. trust me, i've been there. while yes you can grow a plant or two with the stuff you mention, it's really worth investing some money and getting the right equipment. again, i'm only speaking from experience.

i don't think activated charcoal goes by any brand names. sure you might find some with a brand name on it, but you can buy it in bulk both locally (pet stores, maybe hardware stores etc) and online. you can also buy a pre-made filter online. just google it.
