Easy easy. You take it out of the box, attach air tubing connected to an airpump into a little hole, and slide on the big plastic clear tube you see on top there, and it's done!
Not a very good explanation, but if you have an airpump, air tubing, and a hydro sponge, you're ready to go. Directions in the box. I think they're like 2 steps long. ^^

You just connect the air hose into the top of the sponge filter, add the plastic pipe, place the sponge inside the tank and turn on the air hose. Easy peasy japaneasy.
actully I do mine a bit differantly...I use a small round air stone and a short piece of air line below the connection...this provides a LOT more bubbles...hence greater lift and more efficiancy. (once you open one you'll understand what I'm talking about....)
Wolf, is the canister something like 12"x12"x10"? Called the Resun CY-20 Cyclone External Filter? If so, they have this in the current issue of Aquarium Keeper Australia™. Ideal for tank at 50 Litres/13 Gallons. Comes with media supplied.

Barbs usually like a fast flowing tank anyway. If possible, use a spray bar to get an even dispersment of water.
