All Pond Solutions Filters

I recently bought a filter EF1000 from all pond solutions and don't really understand how it works. There isn't a tube to take the inlet water down to the bottom, which seems to me like the water at the bottom is stagnant and it's just pumping straight back in what came out withour filtering it. Am I missing something?

The tube is formed from the holes in the media baskets when they're stacked up.
