I ran into the same situation last week. I ended up setting up another q-tank that wasn't cycled. I was told to just keep doing water changes if it started to cycle. Also keep the bottom bare and when you do a water change suck the suff of the bottom of the tank. I've had the tank running for almost a week and so far it hasn't shown any signs of ammonia, nitrates, and nitrites. HTH
