What brand of liquid test kit are you using?
You said you had the water tested, so I was wondering if just filled up the tank with water, had the LFS test the water after a week and called it good?
If so, the tank didn't even begin to cycle, and will real soon with fish in it.
A tank can't cycle in a week unless it has been seeded with seasoned filter media, gravel, or such from a cycled tank.
