You may need to add something dead to the tank to begin the cycle. There may not be enough dieoff occurring to start the process. As a second note, you did transfer a bunch of lr from another tank so that decreases the intensity of the cycle in many instances, and the tank my be cycled for the current bioload. Also you don't need to have your lights running for such a long time when cycling. When I cycle a tank I don't turn on the lights till after the cycle ends (keeps from the possible algae bloom).
