Ok, so here's where I'm at. I didn't feel like I could leave my betta in that 10g cycling tank, especially because his fins are tearing. So I floated him in a clean betta bowl of water in the tank, clamped to side (treated with BettaFix). Already looks a little better.

So tonight, I'm upgrading my 2.5 cycling tank (further along in the cycle than the 10g) to a 6g. This one has one betta in it, so he'll continue his cycle, which is further along in the bigger tank.

Then, I think I should take the betta out of the bowl and put him in the 2.5g of just clean water until the 10g cyles (changeing the water almost daily of course). Question is I have three dwarf frogs in the 10g, should I move them to the 6g with the betta, and let the 10g cycle without any fish? If so how should I do this? Should I use something to add bacteria?
 
Use Bio-Spira if you can for the 10Gallon.
The 6 gallon isnt cycled either is it?
I say as long as you can keep up with water changes they should be fine.
Unless you're willng to return them to the LFS.
I haven't used Bio-Spira but if you do use it you should be able to add the frogs soon after.
I'm sure someone who has used it will give input about it aswell.
