    For these products, use as much as you can fit.

    Its just providing surface area for beneficial bacteria. The more you have, the more surface area. I suggest keeping it in an area of low flow, to prevent detritus from getting trapped, but not too strong so as to prevent anerobic areas from forming.

    I would avoid using this and simply add live rock to the display. That brick will become a nitrate factory.
