I've read this too... but they say 6 weeks to acheive the full life cycle. Some say to turn up the heat a few degrees too in an effort to speed up the process. Better to err on the side of caution. I'd clear all your fish out, run the UV if oyu have one and let all the things in your existing tank run fishless for 6 weeks before transferring it into your new tank.
