In my ongoing rescue project (https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/roberts-180l-rescue.807270/#post-8648585) I am curious if anyone knows what kind of media this is that came with it:

(Please excuse the plane shavings and sawdust in there, busy refinishing the cabinet first and lacking space to keep things clean)

Or is it just rocks thrown in the sump?

+1 for seachem media.

it’s not expensive so I would vote for buying new if you wanted to have some.
