here are links to two different fans for cooling your axo tank :) Aquarium Fan ► amzn.to/2TbGVQI Clip-on Fan ► amzn.to/2FzDF8j [commissions may be earned from the links above. thank you for supporting the channel!]

Excellent advice! One other thing that may help keep temperatures low is to keep the aquarium lower towards the ground. Because heat rises. Also, if possible, keeping your axolotl tank in a basement may help as well.

For the lid thing I definitely think you need a lid as from what I heard they are pretty likely to jump, so what I use is one of the metal reptile tank lids with the holes, I keep a small fan on the lid as well with a sponge filter

She is so educated on all of her animals like this comment if you agree with me

This is a great video, very informative even though I don’t have a Axolotl lol, great job!

You can use mesh for a lid, to let heat escape while keeping your Axolotl in the tank

Pls start music channel I'm down

A screen lid works well with a fan.

Loved this! You sounded awesome and I love the dancing water bottle, LOL..great. And by the way you sound good.

Thanks for the video. I personally used two 80mm computer fans and dropped the temp from 68 degrees down to 60 degrees with the fans on Medium.

what a happy looking pet! i'm looking to get my first axolotl soon and i think i may just go with a chiller for peace of mind. one less thing to worry about. nice video! :)

Thank you for this! It's spring and out tank is already getting to 23°c so arround the max it can be I've actually noticed Abit of stress since the temp rise so I'll be trying all these as he is already out of direct sunlight

Hey! 🐢 10/10 uklulele skills 🎸

When I move into a house (if I ever do) I'm getting a 20 liter axolotl tank, with sand, a good amount of plants, a few hiding spots, and those little leaves that float to the top, a pretty dim light facing the tank, some shaped portals on the top around the little leavesp, not as much heat in my room, a chiller just in case, it does get colder on the mountains where the house is located. Or maybe, just a freezer with a load of frozen bottles for the axolotl instead of a chiller just in case (maybe a fan on top?), some bloodworms, earthworms and other snacks and etc. Of course a lid, pump, and touching the axolotl gently for a bit just for fun. Tell me what I am doing wrong.

My new Axolotl is so tiny and cute! I use a sponge filter, I have a small clip on LED light that I have a remote for that is dim. And I have a tiny cheap fan I don’t like because my temp is 68 all I need is like 2 or 3 more degrees lower which is so annoying 😤 so I ordered a bigger fan that hangs on the side of the rim and it’s 2 fans on it so I hope it works because it’s like stressed me out 😭😭 and i use the same glass thermometer like you 🥰 I just got my Axolotl today so I had to put my fan I use on the glass until it comes Monday he’s so sweet and active too! I got a flower pot that’s been smoothed out and he loves it

The beginning though!! This will help me out a lot!

I am a big fan you help me so much research because I getting a turtle soon thanks for the help

Wow that intro beautiful And ur great at singing !

Frozen water bottle is excellent advise!

Instead of a frozen water bottle, I wonder if you could scoop out some tank water (like in a two cup Tupperware) and freeze it, then place the ice into the tank?

I'm living for the thumbnail

Thank you for every thing you do I want a painted turtle and your really helping so thank you a bunch

How about having a large ice cube mold in the freezer, and just dropping one or two in before and after work/school and every now and then. Keeps it a little bit more cooler and isn't too much off a hastle.

YOU ARE SO HELPFUL! I was thinking about getting an axolotl but I was not sure how to keep the tank cool and I looked up tank coolers but they were all very expensive Thanks so much! Now I just gotta convince my parents to get me one 😅

For LEDS you want some kind of shade or filter over the actual leds for pets sensitive to light. Consider your pets that cant close their eyes. I use scotch tape but the hazy version, it diffuses the light and makes it less intense. Just add more layers until it easy to look at. I did it for my fish because led light is unnaturally bright and I dont feel like making them blinded by it trying to eat. I used a yellow highlighter on the first layer of tape and it made it much easier to look at too and the warm glow looks like sunlight

Thanks, Turtle Girl! Super fun and informative :)

The way he was standing up 😂

just use a TEC1 cooling element,some pipes,a fan and a power adapter dont buy that expensive chiller be creative make one less than 20$

LOL..love the intro and the Uke.

your axolotl is so cute

I am making an outdoor pond for an axolotl and it will have a small water fall, since this already checks out all of the requirements to keep it cool do you have anymore tips (yes it will be in plenty of shade)

Just got ny baby axolotl...damn keeping the water cool...i got myself into something didn't know keeping the water cool was a struggle..have a fan and cold water bottle 3 time day..keeps the temps at 18°..still have to by a chiller...expensive 😖

What are the other little fishies that are swimming with Mochi? ☺️ any fish you recommend to cohabitate with Axies?

Love the shade. Great video, thank you for sharing. Peace, love and blessings

Great job with this video! Keep it up!

love this !

Your axolotl is soo cute! I'd love to buy myself one someday.

Love the jingle at the end ❤️

Hello! I know this is very late, but just thought I’d give it a try. I live in an area where it gets up to 106°F degrees in the summer/spring. I’m not sure I can get a chiller, since theyre awfully expensive and I’m not sure I can afford one. My tank is unfortunately in a room where there’s quite a bit of sunlight, which might heat up the tank. Would an aquarium fan keep the temperature stable where it should be, or might I need to consider a chiller? Thank you SO much! 🙂

I’m happy for your tips because I’m about to get one I don’t know if I’m gonna get it but I hope so it’s very cute :D

Your axolotl is so COOL

I need to use a cover/lid because of a certain cat that lives at my house -_- Edit: I picked up my axolotl Yoshi the other day, and surprisingly my cat didn't care about him so yay I guess?? XD

Thank you I live in Oregon and we have pretty hot summers. My rooms upstairs too

Thx for the help unfortanatly i cant remove the lid because of my cats but all the other tips helped it cool down

Hi sometimes like to use the ice method but preferably i use sandwich bags

There is practically no way you’re gonna lower the temperature too much, they do good in 60-64 degrees, so unless your tank is really small, this probably won’t be an issue

Thanks, very helpful!

My first video of u. and i find u crazy and cheerful!! i need to subscribe! 🤣🤣

What are the dimensions and volume of the tank? I want to get an Axolotl but the only spare tank I have is a 54L 60cm x 30cm x 30cm

I have a 20 gallon long tank what’s a good chiller you recommend?

So much info in one video

OMG!! Please make that intro music as your permanent intro!! 😆

Cool tank! You should get a few more white clouds though they do better in slightly larger schools. Cheers!

Which tubing did you buy for your sponge filter? I’ve been doing some searching around to find a good tube to use on a sponge filter and haven’t had any luck.

I like the simple idea of taking off the lid, but we are worried given that our axolotl is only a few months old, and we have a cat at home who we are worried might eat her. Any solutions other than a mesh lid? That might break given all the time our cat spends sitting on top of the aquarium.

I've been tubbing my axie for the past 2ish months doing daily water changes and cycling is almost done. I've tried everything you suggested that was available to me (I can't afford an expensive chiller) and I've been putting ice packs under the tub and adding frozen water bottles and the water is still in the low 70s. She barely touched food the past few days only eating a few pieces of worm and she's been floating some and I'm worried

I know Im a little late to the party here. But this was a great video.

About how much does the fan cool the tank down? I live in AZ where hot weather is common, and I'm planning to buy an axolotl but I'm worried about keeping the tank cool enough. Also, thanks for the video!

How do you chill the tank if you're away for awhile? Have you ever tested an aquarium chiller?

I need some help the water temperature is 21c i dont know how to lower it

Does she know that axolotls cant have tank-mates cause theres fish in there too and those will be that axolotls lunch

I know you posted this two years ago but what fish do you have in your tank my sister is getting an axolotl and she has fish but we don’t know if we can put the axolotl with them so my question is what types of fish can be in an axolotls tank?

Thanks!

Wow, I just happened to come across this video & you sound well educated & you speak with great vocabulary. Mochi is awesome too!

I have a cat so I have a lid on but every night or mounting or when I am home leave it open with my windows normally and have my fan on

Can you add one or two cubes of ice to cool it down

I live in the uk it’s like always 15

Should i get one if here in Australia in summer it gets to 40-43 degrees?

Do any body know a water heater that goes low enough for an axolotl because I live in Britain it gets very cold in the winter months some times down to -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit.

We have 3 cats in the house and 3 axolotls, okay so i have a sponge filter and my lights off in my room also the window is open and my door is shut (and sometimes the lid is open) thats the best i can do bc im under 13. But is there something i can improve maybe?

So I have lizards a yellow uromastyx and 2 leapord geckos is it ok to have and axolotl with them in the same room?

How do you keep the sponge filter down in the tank? I just got one and its not staying on the bottom unless I put the rock up against it.

I laughed so hard when she said hot air ballon axolotl. He looked like he was ascending to space 😂

What kind of air stone do you use?

Trying to set my kids tank up but the water bottle keeps floating to the top. Any help to get the bottle to stay at the bottom?

I got the small fan, but it only stays at 66F . Is that ok?

this is still very useful in 2021 lmao

What thermast u use I is it started mine how often. U clean vac ect

Could you be use a Fan system? or Peltier system? or cooler system with fan?

#earlysquad

great song!! keep it up ! God bless you...

It’s winter at my place tho. And it’s like freezing. Everyday is like 12 degrees Celsius!! 🥶🥶

What kind of fish do you have in there with them? And do they get eaten? I have a 75 gallon with 4 Axolotl’s.

If you want doing every day videos because is summer!! 📽️🎬

I live in Malaysia and it's warm. There is no way to keep the temperature below 20C unless u live in a high altitude place or buying a chiller!

Meet my hot air balloon axolotl? That's so funny!

Can I keep turtles and axolotl together if they’re both placed in tanks as baby’s will they get along in the same tank

Are axolotl fresh water or brackish water?

AXOLOTLS!!!!!!

I have a 3 fans, yet my tank is still 21C and I dont know whet to do :/. Any suggestions?

I see the floating axolotl OH FRICK BACK DEMON BACK BACK

I e jus got one today I have a blue led is that ok ?

Thorough 💯💯💯

I have a question about adding more water when evaporation takes place, do you cool the water before you pour it in? If so, how?

hot air balloon axolotls love it XD

So I plan to get an axottl and I fear he would be too warm (air temp avg is 76) would you say that the sponge filter would lower the temp 10 degrees?

Hi just want to say something axolotls don’t like having bright lights in there tanks so I just don’t even bother with lights it’s ok to turn them on if your like taking pictures of them for a short amount of time :)

its pretty bad we can't have them in maine and there's no good reason why either I hope this changes

Does fan method works if you live in a country like Philippines?

I have a axolotl cute
