It has only taken two months or so, but finally we have managed to get the large tank to cycle itself properly and the ammonia and nitrite levels are managing themselves.

So, this morning, Toshiko has finally been moved in to his proper home, rather than the temporary tanks that he has been surviving (and GROWING) in these last 6 or so weeks.

This will be slightly less stressful hopefully as it will take WAY longer for the levels to get out of control and this will require MUCH less water changes than we have so far experienced.
