I didn’t cycle my axolotls 29 gallon when I get them in April. They have been fine since, their water is at 65f and they eat normally. I have a 55 gallon I bought for the two of them. I don’t know how to cycle but I found a reddit that helped me understand. I’m still worried I’m gonna mess up and I’m not sure what I should do.

I was thinking maybe I could buy a bunch of plants and cycle it that way? I’m using a filter for the 29 gallon too. So I’m not sure. I’m just really worried, I love my axolotls. I’m willing to spend the money to cycle their tank. I just think I’m gonna mess it up, are there any alternatives? I really don’t want my axolotls to die because I didn’t know how to do something.

I am willing to cycle their tank. I’m just worried I’m gonna mess it up. So I’m looking for other alternatives.
