[silent_thunder]

Can I at least start to cycle the tank with the left over water from the water changes I do from numerous tanks?

The discus addiction has overcame...me.

Hi water won't cycle anything. The nitrifiers are sessile critters and are attached to anything and everything in the tank and filter. They are not found in the water column.

Set up the new tank, add ammonia and then rinse out the dirty filter media from the other tanks. This will a get a new ''cycle'' going
