Marie I would like to go the new route but I know my wife Willow would not like it to take to long with two tanks running. The whole reason she is ok with the new tank is because the 65 is right out side our bedroom. The vibration the tank makes gets amplified through the wall and is louder in the bedroom. So I could only wait about two weeks. I don't think I could get a good cycle in that time to take my bioload of the 65. This is the reason I want to use the aged or dirty change water to cut down on the cycle or cut it out completely. Also sorry to here about the marine velvet. Would be very frustrating to loose your fish to that. Especially is the new tank should be exciting not disappointing. Sarah sounds like yours was none eventfull just time consumming.
Thanks for the info. Keep it comming.
Chris
