if your plants are deteriorating removing algae wont improve them unless the parts are removed, don't use any chemicals unless you are sure they are safe as some algaecide can affect young axolotls.

I’m adding him back to his tank!!!! I checked ammonia and nitrite and both are zero. Nitrate is 40-80 I think closer to 40 it’s bright red. I’m letting him float in a bowl with a mix of his old and new water just to make sure everything is okay. I’m very nervous I hope it goes well!!

Hey, everything is going good so far and his levels are still zero. He has been swimming around and already found his favorite bowl. I just wanted to say thank you so so much for all your help!! You probably didn’t expect all this from my original post a month ago but you have been so incredibly helpful and taught me a ton about taking care of him
