Should I wash the porcelain rings & Bio-Balls?

Hi,

I was wondering if I should wash the porcelain rings & Bio-Balls when I am doing water change and gravel cleaning.

Pls advise.

Just swish them around in a container of treated tap water so the good bacteria isn't wiped out. Tap water will kill them super fast.

Swishing them in discarded tank water is what I do....It is just the right temperature, and doesn't have chlorine. Untreated tap water, hot or cold temperature all would kill the good bacteria.
