I know I need to get some bacteria from a previous fish tank into the new tank and get it going before I introduce the fish. I was wondering where I could get some "hardware" or gravel from someone elses fish tank, and I realized that last week we returned some catfish to the river that someone was keeping, and there is still about 10 gallons of the old water in the tank which also has gravel in it. My question is, can I use that gravel inside of some panty hose (I don't want it to stay in the tank since I bought some pool sand) to seed the tank? Thanks!
