Hey guys, newcomer here. I'm not sure if this is the place to post this or not. If not, suggestions are welcome.

I'm starting up a 40 gallon breeder for my kids, wink, wink. I've been out of the hobby for a while and my kids are my excuse to get back in. :) Anyways, I'm looking to see if there are any responsible fish keepers (which is why I'm looking here) that would be willing to give me some old filter media to kick off my bio filtration. I have a canister filter on its way right now and would really like to be able to add fish soon. This is the only real option for doing so w/out hurting any fishes. Thanks all, Lance.

Again, if this post should go elsewhere please let me know.

seachem stability and ammonia will have you ready to go in about two weeks. or you could use just ammonia and teach your kids that sometimes you just have to have patience.
 
It might be a good time to develop a relationship with a local fish store. If you tell them you are setting up a new tank and want to start it cycling I would think they would help you out with some seed media. If they do then buy your fish from them. LFS's usually carry healthier fish than the chain stores.
 
Good idea. I just found my LFS of choice last weekend. I was shocked at how sparse they are in Orlando. Anyways, this may be a good time for a first test of just how well this relationship will work out. :) Thanks. Lance.
