So I’m a baby sitter for a strange boy named Boo. Let me show you his growth progression. Even his vet was confused on his age because he’s just so big. I love him and love being his sitter.

Getting my axolotl into its new tank after acclimation

Posted: 16 Oct 2021 08:25 AM PDT

Hi everyone. I'm getting my first axolotl tomorrow and I'm pretty stoked! I'm just a little confused on the method I should use to remove the axolotl from the plastic bag the fish store is going to put it in after acclimation. I have a net, but I've read that nets shouldn't be used on axolotls. I've seen people say that I can just lightly grab it with my hands to place it in my tank, but I've also read that you should avoid touching your axolotl at all costs. And I obviously can't dump the bag in the tank. So I'm just a bit confused on what to do, and I was hoping I could possibly get some clarification! Thanks!

My axolotl hates water changes so damn much, he doesn't eat for a few days after them! And he sometimes pukes, all my parameters are ok but the Nitrates are kinda high, how should I go about this? I leave him in the tank while I do water changes and just take extra precaution with adding water, but should I remove him from his tank while I do them?

not moving??

i recently adopted an axolotl, and brought him home today.

he came in a little plastic bag, like the ones that goldfish come in, so i wanted to get him out quickly.

so i placed the bag in his tank for a few minutes, without taking him out, just so he could get used to the temperature.

and, since i let him out into his tank, he has found one little hiding spot behind his cave, and has not moved from there since.

is this normal since he's adapting to a new environment?

Axolotl looking up?

Since a week my baby axolotl is doing this pose where he would strech his front legs to look up.

Like this

Somebody knows what it means? it looks like he saw something on the surface of the water.

Traveling overseas with an axolotl?

Posted: 16 Oct 2021 04:04 AM PDT

Hello I am currently in Japan, does anybody know if I can fly with my axolotl as a carry-on in the plane? I'll be going to a state that allows them. Has anybody done this before? I am worried because this will be a long flight but I'll be sad to give away my baby

Just adopted an Axolotl that wasn't properly cared for. Need Help!

Just adopted an Axolotl that wasn't properly cared for. Need Help!

Hello
I recently adopted an Axolotl due to the original owners not wanting her anymore. I am very new to owning any type of fish so its been a bit of a learning curve trying to figure this all out. I have a lot of questions if anyone would be able to help.

They had her for at least a few years, but I'm unsure on how old she is. I've only had her for about a week. The original owners hadn't cleaned or changed the water in a while so the original water was quite dirty. I've since changed and retested the water.

The current water parameters:
PH: 7.4
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 5.0

She is about 12" long, and currently in a 20 gallon long tank.

-First problem is that my water temperature is around 69-70 degrees. The tank sits in a dark room with no windows in the basement. I purchased a couple tank fans which are coming in, so hopefully that can drop the water temperature enough as I cant afford a chiller.
-Her gills aren't as full, with one on her right being really small, which does worry me due to the bad water conditions she was previously in.
-I was told she was fed one earthworm a day, but I feel like she might be too skinny as her body is definitely not as wide as her head. She has no problems eating though.
-She tends to come up for gulps of air every so often. I'm not sure if there isn't enough oxygen in the water. I added a sponge filter to help oxygenate the water.
-I'm not sure if her tail is curled or not, or if its just in the way she's sitting but overall I'm concerned about her stress level.

Again I did just get her, so it could be stress from the new environment. Maybe its just I have to wait and she'll gradually get healthier since she wasn't properly taken care of previously, but I'm just a little paranoid.

I bought a 55 gallon tank and I'm planning to move her to that to give her more room to swim. If I reuse all the water in the original tank, and move over the filters and decorations, and then fill the rest with de-chloritized water, will I need to cycle the tank again, or should it be fine?

From looking at the pictures and my descriptions, does something seem wrong with her, and if so does anyone have any suggestions.
Thanks.
