my axolotl isnt used to having plants yet, so he sometimes spooks himself when he floats by and hits them. he then proceeds to frantically swim directly into them for several seconds

First off, I love that axolotl painting you have there. I feed my babies two worms a day because they are skinny, the worms that is and they eat them no problem. they always stand up at the glass ready for breakfast. LOL..yes I see those loverly eyes of yours. And the lotls do bump around the tank. doesn't look like it hurts though. I set up the tanks like an island to where they have access all around the sides of the tank and can't get stuck behind anything. their temp is 65 degrees. thanks for all you do and keep it up.

Hi! I have a huge concern with my axie. I've tried everything so I'm turning to you. Her behavior has been waaay off. She's been swimming frantically for about 3 days now. I did a water and vacuumed her sand. The waters testing right. But she's still acting crazy! I'll place her in a small bowl and she stops. But once I put her back in the tank. She goes crazy again. Her tails red too. I think from banging it on the tank. Please help me fix her. I feel bad and don't know what else to do for her.

Thank you so much!

Just make sure wherever you purchase them from they arrive untreated, as some places add pesticides to the soil to prevent fungus and other nasty outbreaks.😁🌟🌈💙

Both of my axolotls are "pacing" or shifting back and fourth, doing it at different times not together, though they are in a 75 gallon tank and have space. Did a half tank water change, temp is good and parameters are good, and they are eating, should I have a vet look at them?

Hey Frankie - enjoyed the vid as usual. I'm about a week into tank cycling as I wait for my daughter's birthday and her axolotl (I'm secretly claiming half ownership) I bought a whole set up from someone who never got around to setting it up. My question is about sponge filters....I see in your tanks you have 1 set up and run it pretty slow. My set up came with two sponge filters and a dual air pump. Is this overkill? Am I fine to run them both? Can you over filter your tank? It is 75 litres and the sponge filters are reasonably large. I've put things in the water and there doesn't seem like there is a fast current so I'm happy with that......just wanted to know if I should buy a single air pump and remove one
@FrankiesUploads4 жыл бұрын
Morning, Rhys! Many thanks for your comment! So, sponge filters are a great option for filtering your axolotls aquarium, and personally I wouldn't see a need for added filtration on top of those. However, I csnt see it causing a problem if you'd prefer to have both! I usually reccomend the larger the aquarium the larger the sponge filter, but in my honest opinion I've always found a medium sized sponge filter will do more than enough to cycle a good sized aquarium. Keep me posted with your axo journey! I'm real excited for you both! 😁👍💙🌟🌈

Hello! So I’ve had my Axolotl for close to a year now, and his gills have been curled forward since I got him, I’ve kept my eye on the water quality and the temperature, but everything seems to check out.
