...old. I never use it. If you are transferring even one precycled filter (much less three) just use fresh dechlorinated tap water. Just make sure you get the fish in the same day to supply nitrogenous wastes, that will be the toughest part of the whole job. The worst you will experience is a 2-3 day bacterial bloom, but only if you really load up the new tank.

Do you have nets big enough for those plecos? I recently moved one about a foot long from a 55 to a 75, just so it could at least turn around wihtout turning in a vertical direction, and I needed to use two of the largest nets that PETsMART sells, one for his head and one over his tail. Good luck!
