I have read a few threads that talked about how easy this is to make. I am pretty dense, so please bare with me. Is it really as simple as running an air stone down a tube with a sponge at the bottom? I understand how to get the sponge fitted and cut to size and that you put a tube in the middle of the sponge. But the aerator in the tube is what pulls the water thru the sponge? If it is that simple, I am going to cry!!
