Wanted: gunky filter media - London #1
Hello fishkeepers,

Would anybody mind giving me a piece of their filter media to kick start my cycle again? Here's the whole story, I would love not to spend too long cycling my tank with fish in it having been so careful fish-less cycling last year

I live in Hackney, work in Clerkenwell - can travel!

Many thanks!!

Lyds

I can give you some but I cant vouch for the quality of it, I suspect there isn't much bacteria in my system with so many hungry hungry plants to compete with.

Im in croydon btw

I can give you some, I'm just up the road in Haringey (in fact didn't I have one of your office goldfish some years ago?) PM me. I will be driving to the Barbican on Sunday evening so could maybe even post something through your door, if timing works ...
