55 Gallon Water Change and 20 Gallon Startup

Did a water change on the 55 Gallon last night and started up the 20 gallon in prep for the j. transcriptus. I put about 6 gallons of water from the 55 gallon into the 20 gallon and put a little gravel in too. I hope that the cycled tank material will help this tank cycle faster. I also added a little ammonia to the tank -- it read between .5 and 1 ppm last night and about the same tonight.

The pH in both tanks (haven't tested it in a while) is about 8.5. That's it for tonight.
