Is this an all in one aquarium? If so, can’t say I’ve seen a filter sock on one before

What do people normally use to filter out particles and add oxygen to the tank then?

You can buy filter floss and put that in a media basket like the pic you posted. For oxygen, good surface agitation will be your best bet for oxygen exchange. So make sure to get a good pump.

would this be put in a media bag?
no. It’s just a filter really. You can cut it to fit your media basket. You’ll toss and replace it regularly. You can use ceramic rings if you want. I do but if you have enough rock in your tank, I don’t think it’s necessary but of course any extra space for bacteria to grow will be useful.

You can do a search for "innovative marine filter socks" to see the filter socks that are used for the Innovative Marine AIOs. I'm not sure if they could be adapted. I know there are also AIO filter baskets that exist

I’d start with filter floss at first and perhaps carbon. You can make your own media basket if you want. This is an interesting link. You don’t have to go all out like this guy did.
