Hi,
If I was to disconnect my filter, leave the established water & filter media sealed inside the filter for a few weeks and then connect it to a brand new tank, would the filter bacteria still be alive?
Basically I'm asking this because in a few weeks I will be tearing down my old tank, moving it and then replacing it with a brand tank. Wondering how long the established filter media & bacteria would last if I disconnect it from my current tank, so I can use it with new new tank.
Cheers
Dave
