Adding old to New

[2ClownGal]

I have a biocube 32. 14mo old. Building a 150. Would it be beneficial to add bioballs or bio basket media to my 32 to add to the 150 to get it started? I'll be using brick media in the sump but don't have enough room for one in my 32. I currently have a pod tank with a couple pieces of rock ill also use in the big tank. I'm open to suggestions.

Yes. You can even get a small rubbermaid tub and pre-cycle the new rock along with any bio media.

Dump a bunch of Matrix into the 32.

If your going rubbermaid don't forget to add ammonia to help establish bacteria.

Ty. I'm doing a negative area aquaspace. Once the different pieces are built I'm going to see if they will fit into a tote. I have a couple rocks in my 10 gallon refugeum I'll transfer over too.

You can go negative scape with wet rock. When designing remember fish
