Did I crash my cycle?

I was wondering if anyone could let me know if I crashed my cycle. I was told the tank I had was bigger than it was when I bought it so I added more ammonia than I should have and I only recently found out my tank was 30 and not 45. Any responses would be appreciated :)

You are not fully cycled yet but ammonia looks like 4ppm which is what you want

are you using heat and nitrifying bacteria supplement to help cycle?

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
