[AquaticLife] An experiment has started…
Well, that would work also but the water flow through the filter would probably rinse them right into the tank anyhow. They don’t come out the bottle clawing and scratching for a piece of filter media to hang onto. The bacteria are actually in kind of a hibernative state in the bottle so it takes them up to a day to come out of hibernation and then find a surface area to call home and since your filter is likely passing your tank’s water through the filter a couple of times an hour, the bacteria will wake up and likely find the filter media as a nice place to call home since there’s plenty of oxygenated water flowing through it.
Remember.. there’s no such thing as a dumb question… only a dumb answer…. excluding mine, of course. LOL
