I have a 2 20 gallon tanks with one axolotl in each tank. (I have a male luestic Marshmallow, and a female golden albino Butterscotch.) I do 5 gallon water changes every week on Wednesday. I accidentally forgot on Wednesday and did it on thrusday instead.
Yesterday at noon I realized my tank was kinda cloudy. Just to be on the safe side I tested everything with my API Fresh Water Test Kit. Ammonia was 0ppm, Nitrite was 0ppm, Nitrate was 0ppm, and my ph was 7.2. I did add some seachem prime just to be on the safe side. I left and came back at 3:30. It was cloudier. I tested again and my ph was 7.8, ammonia was 0.50ppm. The instant I saw that my ammonia was higher than 0, I tubbed my axolotl. She is currently still in the tub. Her tank reading have since leveled out a bit (still 0.25ppm ammonia.) I have done 2 doses of seachem prime for the entire tank and since then the tank has cleared up. Should I do another water change and see if it will drop it?
