New Axolotl

[Sherrie]

I had gotten a new Axolotl on Tuesday and she ate well that day and also ate well on Wednesday Thursday she ate some in the morning and I had rearranged her tank a little and she seems very scared of me now and keeps hidind and won't eat and I was wondering if I should be concerned or an I just paranoid also is there anything I could do to make her more comfortable?

Hi Sherrie. I'm sure your axolotl will be fine and is just settling in. As long as the water parameters are ok, and you are offering a good diet, then just keep an eye on her for a few days.
Please keep us posted on your progress. :happy:

Thank-you for your response she is doing much better now no longer hides from me

She is such a cutie.

As she grows you might want to change the gravel at the bottom of the tank to sand, just in case she manages to ingest any.

Yeah I'd swap out that gravel ASAP.

Is your tank cycled??
