My NEW Axolotl Tank!! ≽(ᓐ ᗨ ᓒ)≼

[@oposum244]

This is the best axolotl tank that I have seen on youtube. I really like the plants and hardscape in it, well done!

[@InappropriateReefer]

Thanks for your kind words man! I’m scraping the carpeting plants because it’s simply not happening, but everything else seems to be doing decent! Hope to give an update in a few months!

You shouldve recorded yourself planting the 40 gallon breeder :( really wanted to see the process

[@InappropriateReefer]

Didn't think people would want to see that, oops! I got some footage from the 9g planted tank, I can cut something together in the future! Thanks for watching Andy!

[@SustainableDreams]

Agreed

How are these little guys doing three years later? Would love to see an update video

[@quaffleash1117]

I wouldn't mind watching about the axolotls or the planted tank as it is interesting to learn about them

I Want t o see all your tanks. The way you talk about the fish, coral and axolotl have a real love.

[@JackoJ15]

The way they just crawl into the bags by choice is so cute haha.

[@irrationallyhappy]

I love white cloud minnows! I have the 24K gold minnows and they’re some of my favorite fish. They love to shoal together and like being in big numbers, so the shoaling is perfectly normal :)

Definitely loved your video.. the information was really helpful.. hope to see more soon..

This tank is stunning brother. Steph and I approved!

Thank you Anthony & Steph! Hope to see you two again this year!

I'm laughing about the worms! I agree with you. I want an axolotl, but the worms... I'm not sure if I can handle it. Maybe someday. Thanks for the video!

[@joshbroke8965]

I just picked one up for my wife, she has wanted one for years. So today was the day i brought her home her new little guy. She freaked out. The only problem she had was i did not buy him a friend lol. Awesome video and awesome looking aquarium!!!!

Yeah! Let's see the planted tank!!!

[@randypotter5160]

ALL fish are welcomed I joined your channel due to your willingness to try different things and then you started with different types of tanks keep it up ……. more of all your tanks :)

Thank you Randy for following along on this crazy journey! =)

[@GirlTalksFish]

Planted axolotl tanks are my goal as well! Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work! 👍

[@InappropriateReefer]

Still trying to find plants that would work in the cold 62-68 range water. I hear Java Fern works well, but hoping one of these other plants would tolerate it as well. Btw, nice channel, looks like I have a lot of videos to check out!!

[@GirlTalksFish]

@@InappropriateReefer Eee, thanks for the reply! Yeah, I'm going to try experimenting with some fast growing plants to see if they survive in the 60's. I heard water sprite, wisteria, Amazon swords, anubias, vallisneria, java ferns, aponogetons, cabomba, Brazilian pennywort, etc. will work in cold water aquariums, so hoping to give some of them a try. :)

[@InappropriateReefer]

Good tip, thank you!! So far the water sprite, compact amazon swords, and anubias have been doing well for me; the rest seems stunted... I'll continue to experiment and share the results!

[@TheTurtleGirl]

Love it!! The tank looks awesome and the axos look so happy!

You can get axolotl food pellets online as well, if your not great with worms. It still gives them all their proteins. I give my axolotl pellets just because it is easier in a dorm room

[@michellekieszek409]

I would love more updates about your axolotls as well as your planted tank please and thank you.

[@brittneylyncker5212]

i’m so excited you put up with the worms! so many people just void them and don’t feed them even when they need them in my honest opinion. worms are their best source of protein! i can say my baby grew so fast once he was able to take pieces of worms 😌

[@TakingItCaseByCase]

Do you have a video that shows the set up as in the machinery/ filters you use and how you keep it cool?

[@maiciela]

I'd love to see more axolotl update videos! There aren't a lot of people that own them. I don't see too much information regarding their care. Your tank is beautiful and the axolotls are super cute too. I just found your channel and subscribed :)

My lfs has axolotls and they bred so they made a little tank by the checkout saying,”Enjoy the little things in life.” With a ton of little cute axolotls

[@lestersmart8452]

Love your tank bro! My wife and I actually chose not to use any sand or stones in our axoloto tank because they can possibably eat those and get sick.. We have a 37 gallon tank with artificial plants and a log for hiding because they are naucternal and don't like the light. lol...

planted tank update - Yes!

[@AnimalsGirlful]

this tank is gorgeous

[@duppy666.]

Cool new tank! I would love to see an update on your planted tank 👍

[@RipVanWinkle_Nature_Discovery]

I think it's great that you're keeping some FW tanks and you seem to be more comfortable with setting up planted tanks, now. It adds a bit of variety from always being the same topic every week. Just like your travel vids are. I'm actually thinking of starting a vivarium with the native tree frogs here - tree frogs and then the native fish (killiefish) - in the bottom . Anyways I wanted to say great job scaping that tank. Looks really nice and the floating plants are a nice final touch.

[@InappropriateReefer]

Thanks Rip, I was totally in over my head when I tried to set up the planted tank a year ago, you and a few other fellas helped me tremendously. There was a lot of info in different area to absorb. I'm still a noob but at least I know the right questions to ask now. Btw that Vivarium sounds awesome, especially since you could collect locally...!

[@denniseavila4101]

What kind of worms are you feeding them? I been feed my axolotls night-crawlers and I would love small worms so I don’t have to cut the long night-crawlers.

[@InappropriateReefer]

The worms I feed mostly now is called Red Wriggler, I get them from my local PetCo, seems about 1/4 the size of a night-crawlers that I see here. Before that I would use a turkey baster to feed Black Worms

Hey, tank looks great, but they would have preferred you turn the light off while they acclimated. They don't have eyelids so they don't like light, and couldn't move away from the light themselves during this time.

[@bojodojo550]

I HAD neons with my axolotl... To be honest I love feeding my axolotl, but I do find them boring as a species only tank. I think going planted helps to keep it interesting. Eventually I want to go 40 breeder and light only half of it and plant that half. Keep up the good work!

[@InappropriateReefer]

I definitely added the White Cloud & plants for interest as well.. the shrimps mainly to pick up the missed fish food or poop (as well as snacks). I'm trying to see if this combo works; I had 5 Ember Tetras in the original Axolotl tank and 2 of them lasted half a year. How long did your Neons last?

[@bojodojo550]

Inappropriate Reefer the first couple were gone within two weeks, but I had a champ that lasted six months. We even named it.

[@lestersmart8452]

How long did you need to wait before transitioning them to the new tank. Cause I know it takes awhile to treat the water for their needs.

[@bobs5596]

i love amphibians. if you see some tiger salamander larvae for sale get them and raise them up to adults. besides being beautiful, they get robust and very friendly to the owner. super easy maintenance in a terrarium..

[@Fishdude1343]

It looks like you have put a lot of research work and effort into your tanks they are absolutely beautiful! I would like to let you know of 2 things one axolotls shouldn’t be held with any other aquatic animal aside from other axolotls not only because of water temps but because axolotls will eat them and fish might peck at Gills or hands or tail and second I would like to say you shouldn’t keep snails with axolotls because there is a chance of the snail eating the skin coating on an axolotl And they tend to produce more waste than algae they eat which could cause the ammonia levels to rise which lead the axolotl to health issues love your content i mean all of this with no disrespect you have a very lovely tank and pets

How do you keep the water at the right temperature for them? Don’t they have to be in colder water?

During summer I’ll have a clip on fan blow across the surface of the water; other time of the year the water is cold enough with home AC 👍

Great video! Very beautiful axies! I have one of my own named Smeagle! I just gotta say god bless you for keeping fish with them I’ve wanted to for so long but have heard all the info against doing so. And also I love them in planted tanks it looks so much more natural! If you continue having trouble with plants being uprooted then just use fishing line or floss to tie some plants to driftwood! It’ll really look nice on the driftwood and the axies won’t be able to uproot them! Good luck!

You might want to get rid of the fish just because they can damage gills by nipping at them and they could get stuck in gills and the axolotls might eat the fish
