I don't know the weight of these stones, but I would say that for a tank like that 4 - 5 pounds should be more than enough. Nice designs by the way. Have you taken a look at this tank: http/www.fishforums.net/index.php?/topic/340298-on-the-edge/page__view__findpost__p__2827924?

"Filtration- Internal free with tank, 300lph (stuffed with floss to slow flow)"

Yes, it is low light. He is using riccia placed between mesh. What he means is that he got an internal filter for free with the tank, that it has a turnover of 300 liter per hour (this is the 'working capacity' of the filter) and that he has filled it up with floss medium to ensure that the flow is not too strong as 300 lph is a lot for that little tank.
