Thanks, I will keep you updated over the coming days and weeks!

Thanks guys. I have no problem changing the water daily if thats what it takes. How often do I feed the fish during this time?

Thanks for the advice Mozcheez, having tested the water again today, the ammonia level looks like it is between 0.25 and 0.5 ppm. The other values are similar to yesterday. I therefore changed approximately 80% of the water again. If this value remains like this, should I continue to change...

Foolishly I cleaned the old tank and all its components (pump/filter) with a view to selling it. I have now realised that the fish in this tank have thrived and survived purely by luck.

Thanks for the quick responses guys. I will get some test kits this afternoon and post some figures. Louise, when you say dechlorinated water, do you mean adding something like "tapsafe", and do I add any nutrafin cycle when changing this water? Sorry for sounding stupid.
