Hello
I posted last week about moving my new axolotl to a bigger tank and cycling.
Today I'm putting him in a bigger tank with fresh dechlorinated water and just transferring the substrate and ornaments to preserve the bacteria (if there are any).
I now have a test kit to keep an eye on ammonia parameters.
But..I've noticed my axolotl is looking a little unhealthier than he did last week when he arrived. I've been doing water changes daily and as much as I can, but I'm worried he might have ammonia poisoning. His gills have shrunk and he looks a little pale. He's eating every 2 or 3 days.
What can I do to make sure he's ok? Should I fridge him? Salt him? Should I post photos?
Thank you so much.
