Well that's good news. My 37 gallon has been running so smoothly for the past year with no issues, minus a touch of ich back in the beginning. I plan on moving everything; decor, sand, some water and filter over to the 55 so hopefully I should be good to go in about a month.

Should rinse the cartridge at all?
I did 50% water changes for 7 hours yesterday, so 7 changes total. The Nitrite reading read 0 last night. I did another test just now and it's back up to 1. So I will be doing more today. Should I keep doing them every hour?
I was scared to post in fear of getting bashed for something stupid I...
Thank you so much! I will get started on that right away. How many 50% water changes every hour can I get away with before it start really stressing them out?
