Aquarium Plants Ornament
what is the best way to cycle a new aquarium using old tank materials?
im upgrading my tank soon to a larger one, i had many problems setting up my new tank (i was naive about the cycle and only listened to what the local aquatic centre told me...bad idea!) ...obviously now ive wised up to it. Is it possible to buy a new filter sponge and place it in the old aquarium along with the existing on for a week or so? would this be benificial? would it upset the levels in my old tank? im also going to use the gravel from my old tank and all the plants and ornaments.
i plan to monitor nitrite daily and ill not pus the fish in until it is safe, but i was just looking for any tips or advise that might speed up the process a litttle.
thank you for any help
That's a very good idea to run the new filter on the old tank for a while. I would run it there for about a week to get a little bacteria going. use all the old material you can, including gravel, heaters etc without letting them dry out. Also use some of the water from the old tank to make moving stuff over to the new one easier. Move as much water as you can, then the gravel and decor, then the filter etc and lastly the fish. No need to wait about moving the fish to the new tank if you have kept the old graveland filter materials wet and not let them sit in a bucket for a day or something.
Sum it up, Use as much old stuff as you can, keep it wet and move quickly. Doing this will basically move the cycle from one tank to the other.

I recommend that rather than from a lake or a river.
