Cycle crash?? Pls help!!

[teanakainani]

So I did a big water change (maybe about 75%) to lower my nitrates. My ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels have been perfect so far, but after the water change my nitrates read at 0 (as well as ammonia and nitrite). I just left it for 2 days and tested again and now my readings are, ammonia: 0.25 nitrite: 0.25 and nitrate: 10. Did my cycle crash and should I be worried for my axolotl? If it did crash what should I do??

Just to eliminate the possibility of a faulty test, what are your levels at now? Also, what kind of test kit are you using?

Your numbers are certainly a bit odd. At the very least, I would recommend dosing your water with Seachem Prime and either doing 50-60% water changes every 12 hours or tubbing your axolotl and doing 100% water changes every day.
