O.k. here is how I set it up. Beleive me if I can make one of these anybody can do it and I had a lot of the stuff around the house so it didn't cost too much.

Here is the equipment I used:
1 plastic box (discard cover or use for another project)
1 pieces of one inch or so styrofoam
an air stone for an aquarium
a razor blade knife
an aquarium air pump
plastic air tubing for the pump
starter mini blocks
plastic cups
plastic water bottles
plant starter



For the box I used a sterlite 12 qt box from walmart. It was $2.63. I could have used the cover but I did not have the right tools to cut the circles so instead. I used a piece of styrofoam, less than $4.00. It was large enough to get two pieces out of it. So I can make another one.
I used a drinking glass to press circles in the stryfoam and than cut out the circles with a razor blade knife.
Make sure the circles are not bigger than your plastic cups.
