Water test results

[jordan]

What should i be looking for in the results of the water tests? I have a pH of 7, an ammonia of 0, nitrite of 0ppm, nitrate of 0ppm. Mind you, that this is tap water that i am thinking of putting in my tank and of course cycling. ANy responses would be most appreciated.

hi jordan, a ph of 7 is good and no ammonia and no nitrate is excellent. just be sure to declorinat the tap water be4 you put it in the tank.

Jordan - Your ph is acceptable. And your tap water readings should all be zero.

Once you have started the tank cycling test it every few days to see how its going. Your axolotl should not be in the tank while it cycles.
