Advice for filter media in sump

G'day guys,

Almost near completion of setting up my 5ft in wall African Tank.

Just wanting some advice on what to put in my media tower which sits in the first chamber of my sump.

Media tower is 425mm (L) x 400mm (W) x 540mm (H)

Only 90mm of depth will be submerged. The rest will be wet/dry

This is my plan so far

The piping will enter and drop onto a drip plate which already takes up 100mm in height.

2 inch thick 10ppi Poret Filter Foam (50mm)

2 inch thick 20ppi Poret Filter Foam (50mm)

2 inch thick 30ppi Poret Filter Foam (50mm)

Approx 200-250 bio balls (90mm)

14L of SeaChem Pond Matrix (90mm)

Planning on putting some Purigen amongst it all as well.

What do you guys think?
