Hello everyone
My name is liesa and my husband is royston we have joined today to hopefully help us out!
We have two axy's(as we call them) one is called scrambles, he is black and one is called salmon she is pink!
We bought them from a pet shop that was absolutely useless at giving us advice.
We really don't know whether we are going about this the right way at all so please be gentle.
We have a 18" tank that has large gravel on the bottom some big rocks and slate for them to hide, no plants and a small filter that sits in the tank being held down by gravel and it has this cotton wool type stuff in.
we feed them pellets from our hands and ham. and occasionally blood worms. they love being fed by hand and love to suck on our fingers.
but! we have a terrible problem with cloudy water. within a week it is cloudy i use a net to clean and a turkey baster. and tend to feed by hand to stop it settling. and I know you will all shout but we have been changing the water every week because of how cloudy it is.We haven't got a testing kit and we think our filter is <font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font><font color="ff0000">•</font>. lol
please help us with easy words and get us helping salmon and scrambles.
thanks for taking the time to read. we are in england.
