Surface aggitation blows food away..

so i can have my filter filled half-way right? and then pull down the lever?
sturgeon; but i'm saying, wouldn't the sponge absorb the tapwater, and releasing it once the water starts flowing?

On my XP's, I fill 'em all the way in the sink, put the lid on, dry 'em off, put 'em under the tank, connect the hoses, plug 'em in and forget it.
No need to wait "2 minutes" for them to fill and puke hose funk into the tank when you re-start 'em.
