You responded while I was typing  As I said, I am certainly not the fish expert.
So the one thing I don't understand. I get the danger of the ammonia. and what is required for cycling, etc... But I had always thought, that doing water changes in a tank that didn't have an established nitrogen cycle would slow down the process of getting the cycle established. I know that goldfish produce allot of waste. and the ammonia content in a small bowl would become dangerous, but wouldn't doing constant water changes only lead to always having to do more constant water changes if the cycle didn't become established? Or will the tank cycle anyways with no ill effects?
