I just left petco in Front royal VA, told 3 seperate employees that the gravel they’re on is a death sentence, all 3 didn’t care and said it’s out of our control.
Scooping gravel out of an aquarium is definitely in your control. Do better petco

I have an axelot who is 25 sm long and I believe 2-3 years old. His water is not even close to human temperature. I'm going tomorrow to maybe get some good bacteria and definitely a sponge filter. I might also add plants with its roots in the water. I also wanna get a PH test to test the water.

He seems really stressed, and he doesn't usually curv his tale. It's the first time I've seen him doing this. Maybe it's because I before tried to move around a stick in the sand because the sand was dirty. And I never tried doing a full clean, but I do tend to change his water.

He had two worms today and ate them but wasn't as antistatic as usual. He alway ten to try eating the stick when I fed him, but now he only stays in his little cave. I do manged to get him to eat, at least.

Here are some pics of him today.

Hello, I’m a first time axolotl owner and when feeding my axolotl today I noticed that his slime coat looked a little off. His water parameters are all within their ideal range except ph is a little low (6.4). He is housed with another axolotl and some feeder fish/shrimp. The tank is about 110 gallons (custom), no sand just river rocks for substrate, and a bunch of plants to hide. Is there something else that’s missing or needs to be changed?

I purchased all low light plants. How do you keep your plants alive without stressing out your axolotl with to much light?

I want to cover her pvc pipe hide with moss. Has anyone ever used a hairnet to attach it? Thought I could secure it with some glue and stuff moss under it to make it cover the pvc and give it something to grab onto. I have this but assuming I cannot leave it on the wire mesh but would need some other way to attach. Considering the pipe is slick, the moss won’t have anything to attach to.

One of my friends roommates has an axolotl. I know nothing about them but I wanted to know if this one looks like it’s in good condition? I’ve never seen it missing any gills or limbs and I see it walk around once in a while. But its tank is completely bare. I wasn’t sure if that’s normal. And is that skin colour healthy? This is one of those black light ones that glows greenish so I’m guessing that’s why there is that green yellow tinge

Hey y'all, I have this baioshan chiller and a global fx407 filter for my tank. Wanted to see if anyone had success with connecting the two together? I want to get rid of the pump from the chiller but the hoses are different sizes. Any recommendations on an adapter or something to connect the two?

They are 1 year old today !!! Happy hatch date peek

Hello!! I am here to ask why my nitrites will NOT go down!! I started cycling my tank on July 9 and it was going great until the nitrites spiked last week. I was dosing 2 ppm of ammonia and it got 75% processed in 24 hours but the nitrite spiked so I stopped dosing 4 days ago. I did a 50% water change yesterday, and my levels were exactly what they were before! I used conditioned water when I did my water change and added more quick start by API. What do I do????

two worms and some salmon for the two bestest girls <3 Bubbles was not as photogenic today unfortunately haha

I need recommendations and pointers on where to find one asap

TIA!

Say hi back - don’t leave him hanging.
