Daniel unlesss the tank that you getting the filter from contains the same discus that are going to go in the new tank,if not start with a complete sterilization of tank, filter and anything else you going use with that tank and a use new foam in the Aquaclear. Do a fishless cycle. Do not bring a filter from different fish to a Discus tank that is a recipe for disaster waiting to happen. Too many chances of cross contamination.
