The easiest way for me to collect mulm is just do a good vacuum and suck it off the bottom of an established tank. I actually get most of mine from my fish-only 46gal that has a UG filter; I get the gravel vac sucking plenty of mulm out of the UG in no time!

so how would that work if i wanted it from my tank? ( AS still didnt come in and no word from ADG
. If i Took out the Eco complete do i rinse out my tank and scrub it then add the AS? Or should I just dump in the AS? How would i take the mulm out of my AC50? So do i basically get the gunk of brown stuff and mix it in the water? Or no? Should I just let my filter run and that will help with N-Bacteria? Sorry If i make it more confusing than it is. Thanks for the reply!
