I have been doing 2G water changes on my 14G bio cube every night to help keep up with the poor water quality.

Ammonia .25
Nitrite (off the chart) > 5.0 (Could be misreading awful API test kit...)
Nitrate 20PPM
I feel sorry for the poor damsels. Why do you need to make them suffer while your tank cycles?
Read the article link at the beginning of this thread for the answer to why the ich appears to have vanished.
