I recently got a new leucistic axolotl about a month ago and for the longest time,his water was clear and perfectly fine. Multiple people recommended that we buy a sponge filter for his tank,which we had ordered a couple weeks in advance to his arrival.
When we put the filter in (we cleaned it as the instructions suggested),the water was fine for a few days,but a bout a week after,everything started to become really foggy. It got to the point where I can barely see him in his tank now. I was wondering if anyone might know how to get rid of this problem? Maybe getting him a different filter? His water is filtered out and replaced with bottled drinking water with added drops of AquaSafe just in case.
I was also wondering what kits were recommended to test his ammonia,nitrite,and nitrate levels? I've seen several brands at the pet and aquarium stores,but wanted to ask what everyone here prefers.
I'll try to attach pictures of what his tank water looked like before and after the water became foggy.
