HOW TO KEEP AXOLOTL TANK COOL ❄️ 

here are links to two different fans for cooling your axo tank :) Aquarium Fan ► amzn.to/2TbGVQI Clip-on Fan ► amzn.to/2FzDF8j [commissions may be earned from the links above. thank you for supporting the channel!]

Excellent advice! One other thing that may help keep temperatures low is to keep the aquarium lower towards the ground. Because heat rises. Also, if possible, keeping your axolotl tank in a basement may help as well.

She is so educated on all of her animals like this comment if you agree with me

For the lid thing I definitely think you need a lid as from what I heard they are pretty likely to jump, so what I use is one of the metal reptile tank lids with the holes, I keep a small fan on the lid as well with a sponge filter

Thanks, Turtle Girl! Super fun and informative :)

Thanks for the video. I personally used two 80mm computer fans and dropped the temp from 68 degrees down to 60 degrees with the fans on Medium.

The beginning though!! This will help me out a lot!

This is a great video, very informative even though I don’t have a Axolotl lol, great job!

what a happy looking pet! i'm looking to get my first axolotl soon and i think i may just go with a chiller for peace of mind. one less thing to worry about. nice video! :)

Thank you for this! It's spring and out tank is already getting to 23°c so arround the max it can be I've actually noticed Abit of stress since the temp rise so I'll be trying all these as he is already out of direct sunlight

Thank you for every thing you do I want a painted turtle and your really helping so thank you a bunch

Loved this! You sounded awesome and I love the dancing water bottle, LOL..great. And by the way you sound good.

Great job with this video! Keep it up!

A screen lid works well with a fan.

Love the shade. Great video, thank you for sharing. Peace, love and blessings

I am a big fan you help me so much research because I getting a turtle soon thanks for the help

You can use mesh for a lid, to let heat escape while keeping your Axolotl in the tank

Hey! 🐢 10/10 uklulele skills 🎸

Thanks, very helpful!

love this !

For LEDS you want some kind of shade or filter over the actual leds for pets sensitive to light. Consider your pets that cant close their eyes. I use scotch tape but the hazy version, it diffuses the light and makes it less intense. Just add more layers until it easy to look at. I did it for my fish because led light is unnaturally bright and I dont feel like making them blinded by it trying to eat. I used a yellow highlighter on the first layer of tape and it made it much easier to look at too and the warm glow looks like sunlight

Hello! I know this is very late, but just thought I’d give it a try. I live in an area where it gets up to 106°F degrees in the summer/spring. I’m not sure I can get a chiller, since theyre awfully expensive and I’m not sure I can afford one. My tank is unfortunately in a room where there’s quite a bit of sunlight, which might heat up the tank. Would an aquarium fan keep the temperature stable where it should be, or might I need to consider a chiller? Thank you SO much! 🙂

Frozen water bottle is excellent advise!

Your axolotl is soo cute! I'd love to buy myself one someday.

YOU ARE SO HELPFUL! I was thinking about getting an axolotl but I was not sure how to keep the tank cool and I looked up tank coolers but they were all very expensive Thanks so much! Now I just gotta convince my parents to get me one 😅

I’m happy for your tips because I’m about to get one I don’t know if I’m gonna get it but I hope so it’s very cute :D

Thx for the help unfortanatly i cant remove the lid because of my cats but all the other tips helped it cool down

LOL..love the intro and the Uke.

My first video of u. and i find u crazy and cheerful!! i need to subscribe! 🤣🤣

Thank you I live in Oregon and we have pretty hot summers. My rooms upstairs too

Wow that intro beautiful And ur great at singing !

Hi sometimes like to use the ice method but preferably i use sandwich bags

When I move into a house (if I ever do) I'm getting a 20 liter axolotl tank, with sand, a good amount of plants, a few hiding spots, and those little leaves that float to the top, a pretty dim light facing the tank, some shaped portals on the top around the little leavesp, not as much heat in my room, a chiller just in case, it does get colder on the mountains where the house is located. Or maybe, just a freezer with a load of frozen bottles for the axolotl instead of a chiller just in case (maybe a fan on top?), some bloodworms, earthworms and other snacks and etc. Of course a lid, pump, and touching the axolotl gently for a bit just for fun. Tell me what I am doing wrong.

How do you keep the sponge filter down in the tank? I just got one and its not staying on the bottom unless I put the rock up against it.

My new Axolotl is so tiny and cute! I use a sponge filter, I have a small clip on LED light that I have a remote for that is dim. And I have a tiny cheap fan I don’t like because my temp is 68 all I need is like 2 or 3 more degrees lower which is so annoying 😤 so I ordered a bigger fan that hangs on the side of the rim and it’s 2 fans on it so I hope it works because it’s like stressed me out 😭😭 and i use the same glass thermometer like you 🥰 I just got my Axolotl today so I had to put my fan I use on the glass until it comes Monday he’s so sweet and active too! I got a flower pot that’s been smoothed out and he loves it

great song!! keep it up ! God bless you...

Instead of a frozen water bottle, I wonder if you could scoop out some tank water (like in a two cup Tupperware) and freeze it, then place the ice into the tank?

Thanks!

So much info in one video

Should i get one if here in Australia in summer it gets to 40-43 degrees?

Cool tank! You should get a few more white clouds though they do better in slightly larger schools. Cheers!

The way he was standing up 😂

Which tubing did you buy for your sponge filter? I’ve been doing some searching around to find a good tube to use on a sponge filter and haven’t had any luck.

Could you be use a Fan system? or Peltier system? or cooler system with fan?

We have 3 cats in the house and 3 axolotls, okay so i have a sponge filter and my lights off in my room also the window is open and my door is shut (and sometimes the lid is open) thats the best i can do bc im under 13. But is there something i can improve maybe?

Your axolotl is so COOL

What thermast u use I is it started mine how often. U clean vac ect

Just got ny baby axolotl...damn keeping the water cool...i got myself into something didn't know keeping the water cool was a struggle..have a fan and cold water bottle 3 time day..keeps the temps at 18°..still have to by a chiller...expensive 😖

Love the jingle at the end ❤️

I'm living for the thumbnail

OMG!! Please make that intro music as your permanent intro!! 😆

So I have lizards a yellow uromastyx and 2 leapord geckos is it ok to have and axolotl with them in the same room?

How about having a large ice cube mold in the freezer, and just dropping one or two in before and after work/school and every now and then. Keeps it a little bit more cooler and isn't too much off a hastle.

I know Im a little late to the party here. But this was a great video.

your axolotl is so cute

Can I keep turtles and axolotl together if they’re both placed in tanks as baby’s will they get along in the same tank

is that flooring boards at the bottom of your tank?

I have a question about adding more water when evaporation takes place, do you cool the water before you pour it in? If so, how?

Thorough 💯💯💯

Do you have a link to the filter that you use?

Can you add one or two cubes of ice to cool it down

I have a 20 gallon long tank what’s a good chiller you recommend?

So I plan to get an axottl and I fear he would be too warm (air temp avg is 76) would you say that the sponge filter would lower the temp 10 degrees?

just use a TEC1 cooling element,some pipes,a fan and a power adapter dont buy that expensive chiller be creative make one less than 20$

Wow, I just happened to come across this video & you sound well educated & you speak with great vocabulary. Mochi is awesome too!

May u plz reply I’m going to get an axolotl tank soon it’s going to be a 10 gallon tank I live in a hot place temperature raises to 48 degrees •c so can I but him an air stone and filter with slow current and add a fan or can I add a heater which can be adjusted to 16•c ? Plz reply cause I’m going to one very soon

What kind of air stone do you use?

I like the simple idea of taking off the lid, but we are worried given that our axolotl is only a few months old, and we have a cat at home who we are worried might eat her. Any solutions other than a mesh lid? That might break given all the time our cat spends sitting on top of the aquarium.

I e jus got one today I have a blue led is that ok ?

I got the small fan, but it only stays at 66F . Is that ok?

Just a question would you recommend a land turtle or a water turtle for somebody that never had a turtl

I need some help the water temperature is 21c i dont know how to lower it

What are the dimensions and volume of the tank? I want to get an Axolotl but the only spare tank I have is a 54L 60cm x 30cm x 30cm

I need to use a cover/lid because of a certain cat that lives at my house -_- Edit: I picked up my axolotl Yoshi the other day, and surprisingly my cat didn't care about him so yay I guess?? XD

Do any body know a water heater that goes low enough for an axolotl because I live in Britain it gets very cold in the winter months some times down to -10 degrees Celsius or 14 degrees Fahrenheit.

I have three little fish in my fish tank do you think I could leave them there with an axie or not thx

Trying to set my kids tank up but the water bottle keeps floating to the top. Any help to get the bottle to stay at the bottom?

Where can u get one in brisbane?

How often do you feed your axolotl and how much?

Does fan method works if you live in a country like Philippines?

Pls start music channel I'm down

About how much does the fan cool the tank down? I live in AZ where hot weather is common, and I'm planning to buy an axolotl but I'm worried about keeping the tank cool enough. Also, thanks for the video!

What tank do you have? Could you maybe mind linking it?

So i got back to my mums house after 9 months of being away and our axolotl is super skinny. His tank is too small for him and we're upgrading to a 3ft 160litre tank on sunday, this also comes with a UV filter. Unfortunately my mum is one of those people that dont understand how to cycle or that you even need to do it. We've been feeding him frozen bloodworms, but he doesnt seem to eat much of them, majority just float to the bottom of the tank and he doesnt see them. So my question is, how do we get him healthy again? When we change tanks we're going to have to cycle with him in it, so do i do weekly 25% water changes or should i do it more often? And once the tanks cycled, what else do we need to do to keep him healthy? Mum never researched any of this stuff before getting him, because the people she bought him off just said get him a filter and he'll be fine pretty much

Nice t-shirt.

I've been tubbing my axie for the past 2ish months doing daily water changes and cycling is almost done. I've tried everything you suggested that was available to me (I can't afford an expensive chiller) and I've been putting ice packs under the tub and adding frozen water bottles and the water is still in the low 70s. She barely touched food the past few days only eating a few pieces of worm and she's been floating some and I'm worried

What kind of fish do you have in there with them? And do they get eaten? I have a 75 gallon with 4 Axolotl’s.

Can you use a ice pack to keep it cool.

how did you you get the bottom of the tank to look like that?

I know you posted this two years ago but what fish do you have in your tank my sister is getting an axolotl and she has fish but we don’t know if we can put the axolotl with them so my question is what types of fish can be in an axolotls tank?

I have a 3 fans, yet my tank is still 21C and I dont know whet to do :/. Any suggestions?

I have a cat so I have a lid on but every night or mounting or when I am home leave it open with my windows normally and have my fan on

I live in the uk it’s like always 15

#earlysquad

How do you chill the tank if you're away for awhile? Have you ever tested an aquarium chiller?

Can you please link the filter you used or say the name

There is practically no way you’re gonna lower the temperature too much, they do good in 60-64 degrees, so unless your tank is really small, this probably won’t be an issue

It’s winter at my place tho. And it’s like freezing. Everyday is like 12 degrees Celsius!! 🥶🥶

Hello! I'm getting an axolotl soon and I was looking at tank sizes. What size is your tank? :)

I live in Malaysia and it's warm. There is no way to keep the temperature below 20C unless u live in a high altitude place or buying a chiller!
