Moving Filter for Cycling?

[Bettafanatic]

Is it true that to cycle a tank, you can just put in a filter from an establishes tank and it'll be cycled? I heard this somewhere, not sure if its true. Thanks!

Yep! Just take media from an established filter and add it into the other filter. Then add fish the same day

You can also make a new cartridge and put in a "seeded" cards ridge so the New media can be seeded by the old. That's what I did and will do with my tanks. When you cycle the bacteria that your growing on the media, so if you have the bacteria you can use
