I read you post in the other forum and i saw your post on this thread too, so i thought i would throw my 2 cents into the mix. I'll probably get a millions responses back saying how wrong i am but this is what i do to get a tank cycling.
Go out somewhere and buy you some feeder goldfish or guppies or something. Feed them good and keep them in there for a few weeks. Once your tank is cycled, just take out the feeder fish and toss em into your oscar tank and let them take care of em. Then go pick you out a goldfish and put him in your tank.
I have never really had any expensive or delicate fish, i always decided against it thinking i will just kill the fish and i have never had any goldfish before either so i dont know if it will work.
I hope this has helped you out some, but if you want to understand the cycling process more search the internet and read up on it before you put any fish in there.
