I currently have a 45 gallon freshwater tank with a canister filter that’s been growing beneficial bacteria for around 2 years. I’m starting a 2.5 pico reef tank but to be cautious I also wanted to start a bigger 45 gallon saltwater tank for my first one (for more stability). Is there anything I can do about the beneficial bacteria? I’m guessing it would die switching from fresh to salt...
Any suggestions?
tldr: I’m wondering if i can switch 2 years of beneficial bacteria from a freshwater canister filter to a saltwater environment.
