Hi guys quick qestion, i purchested 2 fluval 4+ from here, they ben in tank about 9 months so matured will they be on in transit and then ok to pop in my tank to help with cycle?

Would all the bacteria die or would it still help my cycling?

If the sponges in them stay moist during the trip, they should definitely help with your cycle. They may even complete it instantly just by being put into your tank with the filters running.

all depends on if the sponges stayed wet, if they dried completely you need to start again
