Hello! I am new to this forum and the axolotl community and I just had a few questions I would really appreciate if someone could answer for me!
So I plan on getting an axolotl in less than a month and I've read that you need to cycle a tank before you can put an axolotl in it. Now I understand that you cycle a tank to help build up the good bacteria and such. Would it be wise to get a bacteria supplement to help speed up the process? I know it's best to cycle for at least a month but I can only meet with the breeder on a certain day which will be less than a month. What do you think is the best way to cycle a tank? Is it okay if you don't have any sand or ornaments in the tank once you start to cycle? I plan on getting a tank first so I can go ahead and cycle and worry about the other things once it comes closer to getting my axolotl.
Thank You! I hope I didn't annoy you guys with too much questions. I really want to know what the best things for an axolotl are so that it can live a long and happy life!
