I don’t know if I should be worried? He eats just fine, and he is behaving normal. He doesn’t flick his gills as often as he used to before? (Pic with some brine because I just finished feeding him)

His temp is at 67.3 (F) degrees
His PH is 7.6
Ammonia is 0.25
Nitrate: 0

Thats one of those things to not stress over.

what is your nitrite just as a final thing to check as ammonia should be 0 unless you have proven you have a false read 0.25 long term

My nirite level I checked was also 0 ppm as well. His ammonia is usually at 0 except for yesterday. I was planning on doing his water change today as it's his usual water change day. I worry too much (because I am very used to keeping fresh water fish so I know that axolotls are very different than fish) but I'm glad that him not flicking his gills too often isn't something for me to be alarmed about!!
