frankenstrat Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 i have run out of available air hoses so when i need to run another egg tumbler lately i have been disconnecting a sponge filter here or there.is it ok to leave the not running sponge filter in the tank?rather than take it out and have to wait for it to build up bacteria again.will the bacteria live on the filter whilst its not running? ORwill it be dangerous and cause an ammonia spike?cheersluke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2Hell Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 a Tee, Valve and some Airline would be a better ideaconsidering the amount of air you would need to run both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
