I read the entire mess as well; not an easy read. Not sure what is going on with the tap water. When we jumped from Nov19 to the present, it states that the tank is still not cycled after running for 6 months. Which tank are we talking about? The pic at the beginning of the thread shows the cat in a larger, clean-looking bare-bottomed tank. The new pic shows a cat, presumably the same one, in a rather dirty-looking, much smaller tank, in a different location, with several inches of dirty gravel on the bottom. I've lost track of which combination of filters are gurgling away, or how many gallons of assorted goop have been dumped in. And there is frequently a countdown of days mentioned, how many days until the new tank is cycled and ready. The new tank isn't even built yet, and the old tank(s) may or may not have been cycled...but we are counting down the days until the next one is ready.
This is a frustrating thread. It's like reading a really awful book; you invest some time in it, you want to put it down but you hope it'll get better and provide some satisfaction, but it just gets worse, so you read some more with the same vain hope...okay, not being helpful, I know. Switching books now.
