Hi all,

I just joined here. I used to be a member of The Gab.org, but the site is down and I don't know if it will ever
be back up. I've been keeping goldfish since 2007. My fantail just died of old age. He was almost 8 years old.
Where can I ask about cleaning the filter media as I want to add this filter to my other tank to keep it going.
I will clean out my tank, a 29g and set it up with some new fish when I know what I want to do. I just want
to be sure I go about this the right way. Thanks for any help!

Hi Diane! I am new here as well, with a newly invigorated...well, obsession really for the hobby. I am sorry to hear about your fish. Are you putting the old filter in a new aquarium?

For now to keep my cycled media and since I know there was no disease in my 29g, I am keeping the filter running on my 75g until I
figure out what I want to do with my 29g.

You should keep your media going with filter running to keep it going..is that what you are doing?

Yes, exactly. This is way it will be ready when I am ready to set my tank up with new fish.
