How much KH (alkaline) do axolotl need? That is my question. Cause I house lots of axolotl and for some unknown reason I could never seem to natually establish any KH level no matter how many years it has been. Still 0 or close to 0. So far I have been adding alkaline buffer for aquarium and my axie seems pretty happy with it. Of course my tap water alway 0 KH but even when water haven't been change it's still 0 KH I have to add buffer to get to 20 ( I don't want to add too much chemical in my tank just very as little as possible)
My tank before water change ( always like this)
Nitrate 20 - 40
Nitrite 0 -0.5
Chlorine 0
Gh 75-150
KH 0
Ph 6.8 -7.0
After water change 25% (or 50% if I would be gone a lot longer)
Nitrate 0-20
Nitrite 0
Chlorine 0
Gh 75
KH 0
Ph 6.8
