I have two young axolotls; I have a filtration system suggested for a 5 gallon tank ( I have a 30 gallon ) and an air pump with air stone to supply oxygen on the other side of the tank. I just plugged the air pump back in today because when I plugged it in the first time, the axolotls seemed uncomfortable. They don't seem to mind it this time around. I'm just wondering if I have too much water movement . I've heard that too much can lead to axies having issues and losing their gills. I want them to have enough oxygen and a clean tank, as well as keeping their gills and being comfortable. Overall health is the key goal here. I intentionally installed the smaller filtration system for the low amount of water movement it produces, but I do water changes weekly and clean ups daily. I'm just looking for suggestions, ideas, and criticism. My tank is a 30 gallon; 2.5 ft long; 1 ft wide; 1.5 ft tall. If I have too much water movement please let me know! :happy: Here are some visuals:
