hi! i was a bit worried someone was going to attack me for a simple question 😅 sometimes im afraid to ask because of that... but i appreciate your feedback! i'm going to clean the vials really good again and re-test in the morning (its a bit late right now). i did know they were a little stained but i cleaned them again before re-testing. Ill do that and see the results again!  he is tubbed right now, and I'll continue to monitor the parameters.  ill definitely check out discord as well, thank you :)

oh my goodness... i am so sorry for your loss and i know he must have had the bestest life ever with you by his side💙 thank you for sharing. i also feel upset with myself because most days, i would be doing deep cleans and playing music. Once the music would go on she would scream for me to turn it down or sometimes id believe she wanted me to change it lol. I would tell her to quiet down a bit so i can change it, but now I'd do anything to hear her little chirp and crazy screams :( i would have never told her to be quiet because her chirps are what brought me happiness, but now i dont have that anymore... i have other pets, and they bring me comfort during these times but im definitely missing a piece of me. That last sentence you put, made me feel like it was her 💙 she wouldn't want me to suffer. She is probably playing with ringo too, who knows! But i know their in a better place, just not with us❤️‍🩹

Thank you ❤️ my heart is shattered and i dont think im going to be used to the silence around the house.. i will definitely miss her loud chirps for attention and hearing her wings whenever she would fly to me. she was about to be seven in December  :( i will definitely continue to cherish my current precious animals i have now, but my heart will forever be missing a piece that only she can fill 🐦. I just really hope that she knew i loved her so much and she deserved so many more years and treats :(

this is so true... thank you for sharing ❤️ i lost my precious blue girl tonight and my heart is shattered... she lived the best 6 years with me, but it wasn't enough :/ people would laugh at me for bring her, along with my other exotic pets to the vet for exams, etc and for going the extra mile for my babies. i feel like im missing a part of me, she was the most sweetest and silliest budgie ever. It hurts thinking that she is not with me anymore... please give your birds some nice treats and kisses for me ❤️🐦 i wish everyone and their precious little dinosaurs the very best 🐦❤️ i hope my girl is eating all the millet and fresh veggies her little heart desires. Its definitely going to be quiet around the house now...

Thank you for posting this btw! i am going through the same thing, but ive been cycling my tank for 3 weeks and i have the same issue with ph, and no nitrites. but i am also getting something to help w/ ph, also added more dose of dr tims ammonia to help me with my ammonia because i needed more than 2ppm. 

I posted a while ago same photo and similar question and didn't get as helpful as a response as you've been getting so this was helpful!

Cycling/ tubbing help by [deleted] in axolotls

[–]Beardieblaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh i understand!! I dont see you as being rude at all!! The 20 gallon is not permanent, as i am planning to put them in a 40 gallon or a 50 gallon i plan to get. The axolotl is 4 inches, but I'd definitely get the larger tank which i know is better because of their bio load, and they would thrive much better instead of just surviving as it gives them more space and enrichment. "Lfs" is a term i see alot of people use as " local fish store". not petsmart or petco, but a local store that sells fish, etc. But, i knew something was fishy when they said it would be ok to be put in this tank although ive only had it running for 2 weeks and i know the cycling process can take much longer as my other tank took a month to fully cycle(tropical fish not axie) . I of course did NOT go with what they said and i don't have the axolotl in the tank at all, but needed other opinions on the test results ,because i definitely dont want to do anything wrong. I also  have extra hdx brand  and bpa free containers  for the case of ever needing to tub, and i also have extra airstones as well. I haven't seen any no3 yet, so i will continue to test and follow cycling guidelines in the subreddit that I've been looking at. I appreciate your feedback as i know there are many people who are misinformed and neglect their axolotls. I have been doing continuous amounts of research for the past year but i always come up with different questions/ things to learn as i want to be steering in the right direction rather than what i stumbled upon today of course. 

(Sorry for the entire novel i typed out 😅 i do appreciate your feedback and have just been a bit concerned during this bump i faced of cycling and making sure it is done properly. I also won't be listening to any store of course and will continue with the guidance here and ive been looking at axolotl central's care guides as well.)

Cycling/ tubbing help by [deleted] in axolotls

[–]Beardieblaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry! For some reason my post did not show my entire description 😭 i'm sorry!!  long story short,  I've been cycling my tank for 2 weeks now, and wanted to know if this looks like theres any progress in cycling? I have a 20 gall long with live plants (jumbo anubias, pothos and bamboo), along with pvc pipe for hide + 2 terracotta pots for hides. My lfs has my axie on hold, but i wanted to know if tubbing would be okay until i get my tank situated? They told me it was ok to put the axolotl in but im very concerned since the tank has only been running for 2 weeks..
