Heyya Atitagain Lil help on the definition of nerms...??

Hi Guppy Guy, Before I introduced myself, late last night I posted in the disease section about the mess we are in...Quick recap...I moved Lil Spooky to a cycled 20g from a halfway cycled 54g because the nitrites were around 2ppm...She's pretty upset with me, and the reflection fish that looks exactly like her...

I am a lady who lives in Sonoma county, California. I just recently got into this fish keeping hobby and so far it has been stressful. Right now I have a Monkey faced flowerhorn named Lil Spooky whom I adore; such a friendly and fast growing fish! As soon as I figure out how to upload a picture I will share it with yawl. Glad to be here...

I moved her and now for some floating plants...thank you so much!

Monkey face flowerhorn is stressed and I need some advice 54g bow front corner tank Seasoned HOB marineland with an Aquarium Co-op black sponge pre-filter (new) biowheeel is seasoned from 20g tank. I made a K1 fluidized bed filter with a 1liter water bottle (running for about two weeks) and a sponge filter from Aquarium Co-op medium. 81F Ammonia .25ppm Nitrite 2 ppm Nitrate 5 ppm pH 8 I started on the 6th of August with Little Spooky, my flowerhorn, in my 20 gallon tank that has an UGF recently established. That tanks perimeters are Ammonia 0 Nitrites 0 and Nitrate 20-40 78F The 20g tank seems like a safer place for Little Spooky but I am having trouble deciding what to do. She stresses out when I bring the net towards her. Should I move her back to the small tank or do water changes every two days in the 54g, should I use Prime if the amount of chlorine is not detectable in my tap water? Should I use salt? I am worried about the Nitrite level and cant seem to figure out what to do about this situation I put myself in...
