It appears my existing 12 gal Eclipse at home has cycled (I need to do a pwc and take new reading tonight). I am going to start a new 12 gal Eclipse at my office. I was thinking of putting the new tanks bio wheel into my existing tank to let it get some bacteria before I start up the new tank and possibly exchange some gravel between the existing and new tank. How long do I need to let the new bio wheel float in the existing tank for it to be effective?
Or would it be better to let the new bio wheel float in the existing tank and then exchange bio wheels and put the older bio wheel into the new tank?
I have some Bio Spira from my last cycle but am not sure how effective it was with the initial cycle but will add it to the new tank also.
