ok everyone, when somone gets a new tank and wants to "seed" the new tank so the cycle goes a little faster, but lets say that i have a 29 gallon, established tank, ok. and i just got a new ten gallon, bare with no rocks or anything, and then i took 1/3 water from the 29 (10 gal) and put it and a 1 inch thick gravel, then i took a filter media from the 29 gallon and put it in a same filter for the 10 gallon, and now i wonder would this be instant cycle since it has all the backteria the 29 gallon had, except the walls of the glass do not have any backteria, i mean wouldent this work? and if it does not can someone please explain why?
