I want the connection

[Axolotl_My David ❤️]

Hi, I have an Axolotl, David, and I really want to have those relationships were he’ll swim up to the glass to see me and he’ll sit on my arm in the tank and all that stuff. He used to come up to the glass to see me and follow me around and all that. But in, like October, I thought he seemed bored and sad so I decided I’d do a big clean of his tank and redecorate the tank. I had to rub him for the first time for just an hour. He hated it. I put him in the new tank and he didn’t eat and he just wasn’t the same. I later found out that his was ph was absolutely . I was panicking and was trying to fix it. I ended up getting it tested properly and got stuff to fix it (might I add I did come on here but my mum said to get it tested properly first, but thanks to those who helped me). His water is fine now but he isn’t as affectionate as he used to be. And I’d buy hike little neon tetras for a yummy snack as a treat and he’d smash five out in half an hour, but like a month ago I got 10 tetras and there are only 8. Idk if he doesn’t like them anymore or what. I’m also away every second week so I don’t see him for a whole week also don’t worry my parents look after him while I’m away. I just want him to live me the same. But before when he was more affectionate I was only way for 4 days then back for 4 days. So idk if it’s the change or me being away a lot more. I just don’t know what to do, I love him so much.
