not sure why you would put moss under the substrate...
also not sure why you would need an airstone. plants are your source of O2 for your fish.

Hi, you might find this useful. It is a step by step by MatPat on how to set up a tank using SMS. Yes a layer(more like a light dusting of garden peat moss would not hurt as per MatPat).I'm not sure either thats why I'm asking? I have had freshwater tanks for 20+ years and all had and have air stones in them. I don't run them in my reef aquariums. I should have included that this is my first planted freshwater tank and I'm learning here what I need and don't. I read some posts about putting a very very light layer of organic moss under the substrate to help add nutrients in a new setup?
