I'm just wondering, not looking at the surface area of the filter media, are there differences in media which promote groth of beneficial bacteria faster? or which bacteria can cling on to the media faster than others?
I'm just curious as i'm curremntly cycling my tank , but still not much progress, was wondering if it might be some media promotes faster bacteria growth or easier for bacteria to establish than others?

I've placed old media into my sump , but after 5 days it seems like no progress yet,. ammonia is quite high with no nitrite.
