Yea, well the problem is that I figured that Sammie would be happier in a non-cycled tupperware container with gravel and fun stuff to swim through and in than in a plastic dish in my LFS. Which is true still in my mind. This also serves the purpose of doing a QT as my tank finishes cycling. The only problem is that the Tupperware also is not cycled. Again though, 1 cup of non-cycled LFS or a few gallons of non-cycled Tupperware.... I didn't think though about the issue of the high NH right now locally until today when I tested his water and said "ack PWC time." I even have 3 gallons of dechlorinated same temperature water next to him ready and waiting. I did that one final test (of course after I had learned how to use my python and pulled out half of his water) and started worrying a bit. LOL.
I think Sammie will be perfectly happy in C.A.N.S.W. until my tank finishes cycling. At a dollar a gallon, I think I can manage!
