I got duckweed that has baby Neocaridina shrimp. I didn’t know it was going to have as many shrimp or else I wouldn’t have put it in there. Is this fine to be in the tank with my boys? I’ve already put it in the tank 😅 helppp

I was away for a couple of days and left small guppies in my tank from my local fish shop for my axolotl. I asked the shop if i needed to quarantine them and they said no. I don’t have a separate cycled tank so I didn’t quarantine them. Since I have been back, for about two weeks my axo is spitting up worms even when feeding them every other day. There is also some slimy film when works are regurgitated. I have tubbed my axo with prazipro. I haven’t seen any worms. How do I clean my cycled tank? Do I need to give them some medication for an infection? I have my own worm farm at home.

I have found a few of them past weeks. Looks like “poop” but transparent. I caught it while it was attached yet, but there are more around the tank. If in not wrong, it’s a female axolotl, but I have another one who is male. They both have around a year, and I can only think about poop from eating earthworm or something related to reproduction. Can anyone identified what it is and if it’s not related with any illness? Thanks in advanced!

wise mystical fih has 8 names and demands more food

i fed him yesterday and he observes me like :3

he asks everyone do you have games on your fone?

he is VERY judgemental

A while back i put photos up of my kellin (im going to say he as I don't know the gender c: ) basically when I got kellin he was tiny and ive been trying to get him to gain weight as at one point he wouldn't eat worms or pellets. I weened him off bloodworms and onto pellets and this week im going to order some normal worms for him. Anyway ill put up some before and now photos of kellin, I hope im doing a good job as I think hes gained weight.

Hey everyone! I've shared pictures of my axolotls with you a few times, but there's been a question on my mind for a while now...

They arrived here when they were really tiny. They didn't even have their hind legs yet, and their front legs had barely started developing.

I'd estimate they were around 10 to 15 days old when I got them, and they were about 3 cm long. Today, they're almost at the two-month mark of living with me, and my babies are already measuring 12 cm!!!

And they're not even 3 months old yet! I always see people posting pictures of their 6-, 7-, or 8-month-old axolotls measuring around 12–13 cm, but mine have already reached that size, and they seem to be growing more and more every single day.

Could it be because I feed them too much? LMAO 😂

Jokes aside, I've done a lot of research and always try to provide them with the best possible diet in terms of nutrition. I've noticed that many people continue feeding their axolotls bloodworms even when they're already juveniles, and we know how nutritionally inadequate bloodworms become as a staple food, especially as axolotls get older.

This is my biggest question right now: are my axolotls growing at a normal rate? Are other people's axolotls just growing more slowly, or are mine going to turn into giant axolotls and take over my country? 😂🦎

มี axolotl เลี้ยงด้วยกัน 2 ตัว ตัวนึงติดเชื้อราแล้วแยกออกมา tub แล้ว ตัวนึงมีโอกาสติดต่อมั้ย

Hi everyone,
So my axolotl had a white fungus infection about 2 months ago and I treated by quarantining in a separate clean tub. I tried giving black tea baths at least 2 times. It seemed to clear up but then it returned yesterday. It is this white fluffy stuff that grows on the external gills. I tried using the turkey baster to either suck up the white fungus or knock it off, but it wouldn’t come off. I ended up carefully removing it with the feeding tweezers which I know was probably stressful for my axolotl. I am aware that they can shed their slime coat if they’re stressed. I don’t think it’s a water quality issue as I monitor it biweekly. I am wondering if the shedding is caused by stress or the white fungus? I’m really stressed to have to figure out how to treat this infection again. I am also discouraged as my axolotl is only a year and a half (not too old) but has been having these infections despite what I thought was good water quality. Any tips or advice would be appreciated. Also video is showing me filling the turkey baster with water to move the water around and show the white flakes scattered throughout the tank.

Also, my axolotl is now in a medical tub with dechlorinated water and a pH of 7.0

Should I add plants? I’ve had the gravel for 9mo+ no issues. Just asking for general advice one what I should do to make it better

Mr. Ghost

Hi! any recommendations for treating salvinia before adding to the tank? I have read about the different dip methods and have seen some posts about carbonated water. Not sure if anyone has any recommendations specific to axolotls. Tyia!

I've been lurking for a bit here as I'm a new keeper. I figured it was time to introduce you to Frank. They're a week away from turning 6 months old!

Our sweet darla is finally confident enough to eat!

he’s always had slightly bulging eyes cause we went through ammonia spikes but idk if they look too big now everything else is fine but i wanted a second opinion and it’s better to be safe than sorry
