today I'm cleaning my axolotl tank and taking you all with me! I haven't done an axolotl vid in a while, so I hope you enjoy seeing Mochi.

LOL..that cut out is awesome. As far as lighting goes, I have mine on the blue lights with one of them and on the other tank I have a current usa light and it has different levels of brightness for the white so I keep it on low.

i am so mad. i came here to watch someone else clean their tank and get some tips, and they are very useful and educational tips !! tysm for these, i need them to clean my tank :-] i'm mad at the reason i have to clean the tank. he's currently in a large bowl right now (we don't have any totes to use) with a few of his fake plants. i put his tank cover on top of it. (obviously there's water in there too) (ok here's the point) | | _ there's this yellow anemone thingy in my axolotl's tank, and it is actually a really cute decoration and my axolotl loves it. i'm so sad i have to take it away, but there's this residue that comes off of it when you shake it. this is what caused the clouding and nastiness in my axolotl's tank. i am NOT satisfied with this product, tetra. "trust your tank to tetra" my ass. my axolotl could've easily thought this was food and ingested it. keep in mind this is fucking RESIDUE coming off of a "tank-safe" product. disgusting. i got my axie and all of the stuff for my birthday, so i can't leave a review, but let's not miss the point: this could've been VERY dangerous for my beloved axolotl and i am not happy. i love him so much and the LAST thing i need is a supposedly tank-safe product threatening his life. thank's for coming to my tedtalk, hope it wasn't too long x

Hi, so I just got an axolotl yesterday. I fed him and tested the water for everything. However, all of a sudden his tank got cloudy. I was wondering why? And if I should just do a water change? Some people say to let it work itself out but it really bothers me.

What size tank are you using (looks like 20 or 40g) and what/where is your shelving for the tank from? I’m having a customized tank made and I’m trying to find a sturdy but suitable stand for it.

I know I’m kinda late, but it’s pretty dangerous to do your cycle with the axolotl in the tank so it’s best to cycle your tank before putting your axolotl in!

@@CowboyBeansss Then just do the best you can! Cycling is a process by which waste is broken down in the tank. You monitor it with a test kit. If you don't have one, the best thing to do is just keep up with small consistent water changes - like 30% weekly or bi-weekly - but not changing 100% of the water ;) Best of luck!
