New ( To Me ) 4Ft Tank, Colonized Filter?

[plecostomus-mad]

i managed to get hold of another 4ft tank this one comes with the original clear-seal cabinet and both are in excellent condition

i have sterilized it and cleaned my sand and have put it in because im inpatient i was wondering if i used my current filter, which is looking like its cycled, readings are 0ppm for all after 24 hours, would it therefore be cycled in my new set up?

no maybe's , i need a definite yes or no on this one

You can only garuntee a filter is cycled if Ammonia and NitrIte have been 0 for 7-8 consecutive days

I you do put that filter in to the tank in question at present, you will be taking a massive risk.
