    Activated charcoal is an ammonia catch!
    At best you have you now have six months to throw out everything that is in that tank right now in start over or you will have a stagnant swamp no matter how often you change the water that activated carbon that you threw in there is going to fill up with ammonia and nitrate you have to get rid of it or clean it. If you have an autoclave I suggest the clay pellets with the activated charcoal inside the pellets. Yeah you need a moisture gauge for the soil to check whether or not you need to add water for the plants I use a misting machine and you need a waterfall Style biofilter for the pawn. In the most important part do your best to keep the land side separate from the Waterside because if so soil overflows into the you will be changing out your pond quickly and if all you are using is activated charcoal in the waterfall throw it out and get a new pack no big deal I buy the stuff by the quart or by the 20lb bag either way works
