I rule, just had to get that out of my system. Move along, nothing to see here.

So this morning I tested the ammonia again at almost exactly 12 hours after I dosed it last night, 0ppm. I think this baby is ready to go. I forget, do I need to wait until the the tank is showing 0 nitrites as well before adding fish? Also I'm wondering if I should do a full WC now or not.

You could always ask them to put it on hold for you by buying the fish and then asking them to keep them until you're ready for them.

Wow. So this is just about 14 hours after I did the two full WCs and put ammonia in up to around 1-2ppm. Another full WC or just leave it be? Should I start skipping the ammonia every other day?
I'm excited for you to have another tank. I love your YouTube videos. You've inspired my 12 year old to try to make one once our new fishies are ready for filming (got them today).
...but I am starting to get a little antsy.
