Just a quick question - you mention that your water seems to be exactly the same as it is from the tank...
You ARE treating it for chlorine aren't you? It sounds like every time you add new water you may be killing off your bacteria and starting again?
Not meaning to sound patronising!! If you've covered that just tell me to get back into my box - but I remember an old flatmate who never treated her water - and only did a single 5g water change in her 35g every 2 months. Poor wee fishes must have gone through a new cycle every time.
