So ive had my Axolotls for a few days now... ive been testing the water every day and gravel vac'd on the end of day one, and again this morning... ive done 1 20% water change, and fed them on day 1 lighting with some krill pellets, and again this morning with a few more krill pellets...
We went and picked up a few feeder guppies yesterday, and needless to say they are all gone but 1....
They are in a 20 gallon tank
Conditions:
Water temp. 64ºF
pH: 7.4
Nitrate: 0PPM
Nitrite: 0PPM
Ammonia between 0 and .24
(Using drop test kit, not paper)
Substrate: Quartz sand
Filter: 20 gallon AquaTop external filter
Additional from a small air stone, does not cause any notable waterflow to my eye, and the axolotls gills have gone from being curved forward when i received them, to now laying back....
The only light for the tank is a single T8 24" tube that is on for maybe 6 hours a day, the rest of the time is ambient light from the room and the windows, never direct light from the windows on the tank however....
There are a few hides in the tank, and artificial plants....
I planted a few small aquatic plant bulbs to see how that would go....
Any input would be greatly appreciated
Thankyou
