Contrary to what is said here and other fish sites, shutting down a filter will not cause it to become sterile. It just doesn't have the robust population of bacteria that it once did. It will grow back much quicker than during the original cycle. Just add part of your fish back to the tank and test for ammonia after a day or two. Keep testing every several days. If the filter is doing its job, slowly add more fish.
