  • How will beneficial bacteria stay alive?

    Can I transport some filter media or something like that for 24 hours without it dying?

    It feeds off of ammonia. If you kept it a bag with tank water it would likely survive 24 hours. Do not allow it to dry out

      It also needs O2 so if you can throw a bubbler on it, it would likely help. I thought it would go septic after about 6 - 8 hours?

        when i moved down here i put all my bio-balls in 2 - 5g buckets with water and no bubbler for about 13 hours and no problem but for 24 hours i might suggest the bubbler.
