Axolotls need hard water that is either hard (GH = 10 to 15). Below 10 for the GH we are in soft water, that is to say going towards acidity. Haut de page parametres ideaux parametres ideaux Explanation of the parameters Share Comment augmenter ou baisser la dureté de votre eau en bas de page. NITRITES NO2 Organic waste is transformed into ammonia (NH3) which is very dangerous for fish and ammonium (NH4) which is not very toxic. Ammonia is transformed into nitrites (NO2-) thanks to a nitrifying bacteria called Nitrosomonas . It is important to regularly check the concentration of nitrites, because even in low concentrations, it affects the red blood cells of aquatic animals, reducing their capacity to carry oxygen and thus causing suffocation and death of the fish or axolotl. Ideally, the nitrite level in the aquarium is zero. The nitrites are then degraded into nitrates (NO3-) by the action of the Nitrobacter bacterium. Nitrates can turn back into nitrites [if your changes in au are not made regularly to lower nitrates (No3)], nitric oxide, nitrogen oxide and then nitrogen gas (N2). This information tells us that we must actively monitor the presence of nitrites (NO2-) in the aquarium otherwise all life in it will die quickly . It is also important not to overfeed the fish and to regularly clean the bottom of the aquarium: this eliminates the main source of organic waste. The nitrogen cycle also teaches us that it is important to change part of the water regularly because if bacteria make it possible to recycle organic waste, the non-renewed water in an aquarium inevitably sees its nitrate level rise. . In addition, the bacteria we discussed above are not naturally present in water, so there must be an external supply of these bacteria. Urgency to lower nitrites, but only if there is no other solution because it is always better to avoid any addition in the aquarium, and let nature work. Nitrit-minus NITRATES NO3 The main causes of too high nitrate levels The nitrate level must remain below 20 mg / liter. Beyond that, it becomes dangerous for axolotls and fish. If the nitrate level exceeds 25 mg, here are some possible causes: - Excess of food - Overpopulation of the tank (never exceed 1 cm of fish per liter, this is only valid for small fish. A large fish such as the discus or the scalar needs 50 liter on its own ) - Poor maintenance of the tank: water changes not frequent enough, leaves of dead plants left in the tank, filter too dirty or in poor condition ... - Water changes with water loaded with nitrates (rare). Plants play a role in regulating nitrate levels, since they consume them to grow. It is therefore important to plant well, when the tank and the housed population allow it. If your pipe water is loaded with nitrates, resins are sold to lower this rate, they should be incorporated into the filter media. The totally natural ones have been listed for you here . In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Here are the main water parameters to know in aquariums. There are still many others such as Po4 phosphates (toxic), iron (necessary for plants). The important thing is to respect the needs of the fish, to maintain the tank regularly and not to play petty chemists: no need to buy so-called “miracle” products which are supposed to modify the parameters (pH, nitrates.). They can be dangerous and completely disrupt the balance. Regular tests verify the quality of the water. In strips or drops, there are all kinds. Drop tests, although more expensive, are the most accurate. (see below) Water quality in France new UFC QUE CHOISIR card: https://www.quechoisir.org/carte-interactive-qualite-eau-n21241/ WATER HARDNESS IN FRANCE Green : Low Hardness, GH <9 Orange : Medium Hardness, GH> 9 <15 Yellow : Strong Hardness, GH> 15 <20 Blue : Very High Hardness, GH> 20 In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Ideal values for our axolotls In short ! TOTAL HARDNESS GH in detail The total hardness, GH (or TH in French degree but never used TH = 1.78 × 1 ° GH): it corresponds to the calcium and magnesium salts contained in the water and results from the accumulation of the carbonate hardness and the permanent hardness. The richer the water is in calcium and magnesium salts, the harder and therefore calcareous (commonly) it is. A GH hardness of 5 ° to 10 ° corresponds to soft water. Some tests are displayed in German degrees, the tests giving this value. To convert TH into GH, multiply the TH value by 0.56 Carbonate hardness (KH in German degree or TAC in French degree): these are the carbonates and bicarbonates of calcium and magnesium which disappear after boiling water . They are therefore temporary. KH acts as a buffer on the pH. Permanent hardness: these are the calcium sulphates and chlorides which remain present after boiling. The pH: it corresponds to the degree of acidity of the water. Below 7 the pH is acidic, above 7 it is basic, equal to 7, it is neutral. The pH varies during the day: at night it decreases because the plants reject CO2, during the day it rises because the plants consume the CO2 for photosynthesis. The most important parameter to take into account for the welfare of the fish is the total hardness. It is necessary to respect the requirements of the fish with regard to this parameter. The pH must also be respected, especially for very delicate species such as the Discus for example. Axolotls need hard water that is either hard (GH = 10 to 15) and basic (pH> 7). Below 10 for the GH we are in soft water, that is to say going towards acidity. However, the minerality of water is essential for the proper functioning of the axolotl organism and especially of its digestive system. Above 20 we are on a very dangerous GH on the other hand, be vigilant. Recurrent yeast infection is often caused by inappropriate or abruptly changed GH. Augmenter la dureté de l'eau Il suffit d'utiliser les minéraux PREIS pour discus qui procurent tous les minéraux et les oligo-éléments nécessaires à l´eau osmosée et à l´eau de conduite lorsqu'elle est trop douce, afin de rétablir l´équilibre. Grâce aux minéraux PREIS pour discus, vous rétablirez rapidement et de manière professionelle une carence en minéraux. Diminuer la dureté de l'eau Vous devez utiliser de l'eau déminéralisée, en vente en magasin d'aquariophilie ou bien en achetant votre osmoseur en voici quelques uns : AQPET OSMOSY3 ou bien Geekpure Système et Measury Osmoseur L'évaporation naturelle de l'eau d'un aquarium, fait que l'eau restante est de moins en moins dure, minéralité qu'il faut corriger par des remplacements partiels d'eau.

Cachettes à acheter ou fabriquer, décorations liens directement sur les images afin de trouver les plus jolies cachettes aux meilleurs prix Build your hiding places or / and buy them Always use to paste your hiding places or other decorative items of special glue , special aquarium silicone or silicone neutral (not putty I have good writing often transparent silicone or never white black it contains additives office) without additives so if there has an anti-fungal not even worth it. If in doubt for beginners take the safest if you are unsure. These hiding places are made either with coconuts or 10 cm diameter pvc pipes. covered with sand or pebbles but always special aquarium silicone to hold the elements. the bottom of the pipe has been cut and sanded here, but you can very well leave it whole. Alternatively, drill multiple holes, using a drill, your pipe so you can attach moss, riccia or other plants by passing the fixing wires from one hole to another Nathalie C Nathalie C Nothing prevents you from covering your hiding places with vegetation for a very discreet appearance, the hiding place will be hidden. Nathalie C In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. I also nested two coconuts one inside the other to offer a more spacious hiding place, by making holes in the bottom of one of the two. Above all, remember to boil the coconuts and pebbles well, wash the sand and the pipes well. Sand each edge of the pipes or coconut, because your axos have a very tender skin, without scales to protect it, and a very fragile veil. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Nathalie C It is also very easy to cover a pvc pipe with pebbles. Nathalie C Nathalie C Thanks to Julie Mbw for sharing her photos with us for making a hiding place: Cover a tupperware (plastic intended for food use) with pebbles purchased as you wish in a garden center, etc. Glue these pebbles with special aquarium silicone. Practice the opening (s) before gluing them. Here is a brilliant invention !! With a food-grade plastic allowing its immersion in our aquariums without danger. Well obviously not to go into kitsch decoration but if possible using natural colors (achievable thanks to the primary colors available on the links below. Do not make creations that are too small so that your axolotls cannot ingest them and suffocate them with or risk an occlusion! You are free to create or repair whatever you want in your aquarium!

The proportion of fish meal and gammarus meal is particularly high in this type of granule (depending on the size of the granule between 73 and 80%), which in turn leads to very high digestibility and productivity of this food. Unlike other types of pellets, the fishmeal / oil content of which is only 30% - max. 40%, sometimes the amount of feed can be reduced by half. Axobalance food pellets have been used successfully for years for a balanced and healthy diet in private households, zoos and in research institutes such as the Ambystoma mexicanum bioregeneration center and other research institutes and are recommended by the larger European community for Axolotl as the only food in pellets. .

It lubricates the contents of the digestive tract in order to promote the transit and progression of stool in the intestinal lumen. Paraffin oil also helps to soften the stool and facilitate exoneration. Paraffin oil is therefore indicated in cases of constipation and especially in the case of painful defecation. Paraffin oil is a mild laxative which has a delay of action between 8 and 72 hours. So do not expect an immediate effect, but it is a very good way to relieve a slight constipation or to take care of the pain associated with the emission of stool.

 La taille de la nourriture doit être adaptée pour être avalée en entier. L'axolotl ayant de petites dents (trop infimes pour que notre peau les ressente), il l Alimentation FOOD Inert food The axolotl is carnivorous. In its natural habitat, it fed on small fish, insects, larvae, fry, worms and small crustaceans (freshwater of course). But our axolotl, born and kept in an aquarium for long decades, no longer has anything in common with its burrowing ancestor and living in the muddy bottoms of Mexican lakes ... Any food containing iodine and coming from the ocean or the sea. sea is to be avoided. The size of the food must be adapted to be swallowed whole. The axolotl having small teeth (too tiny for our skin to feel them), it is difficult for it to slice the food. The pellets are specially designed for the food needs of the Axolotl. They can also be fed with pellets for sturgeon breeding but to help out because the quality leaves something to be desired and the proteins are clearly insufficient. Pay attention to the composition: no iodine presence and fairly high protein level. Pellets should remain the staple diet, because it is the most balanced. Where to buy pellets if your pet store does not sell them? In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Haut de gamme Gamme du commerce Ces fréquences de nourrissage ne veulent pas dire grand chose. Les axolotls mangent quand ils ont faim. Mes axolotls sont nourris chaque jour, l'un mangera peut-être tous les 2 jours, un autre un peu chaque jour, un troisième préférera venir voir ce qui se trouve dans l écuelle de nuit, une de mes louloutes est très gourmande et bien je ne la restreints pas. Je vous écris ceci car l'on voit de plus en plus d'axolotls maigres Donc pas rapport à toutes ces raisons ne leur donnez pas une ou deux fois par semaine, ils sont tous différents et ont des besoins différents. Grâce aux écuelles vous verrez facilement qui mange quoi et eux ont un repère pour vous indiquer qu'ils ont faim. (Click on the images to be redirected to another merchant site) HERE !

Diced freshwater fish fillets: You can buy trout, panga, pike, perch, any fish coming only from freshwater, don't hesitate to ask your fishmonger and read the labels carefully. Panga is not the best fish, it often contains a lot of products and hormones because it comes from tanks in countries not subject to the same breeding guidelines as in France. You cut your fillet into small cubes and can thus freeze it (initially flat so that the cubes do not stick together), you will thus distribute these small diced fish to your kitties as you wish. Avoid Tilapia as much as possible, this fish unfortunately comes from intensive farming and in dire conditions, explanations of the consequences on this link: http://lepointsur.com/tilapia-poisson-dangereux-sante/ The Joëls (small frozen fish in sachets) but be careful of their origin (some come from the sea) read the label carefully and if in doubt do not buy. Atherina boyeri can be found indifferently in seawater, brackish water and fresh water. Schools can form very close to the shore, this fish is caught in order to serve as bait for larger fish, it can also be eaten as jol or joels traditionally fried. The heart of beef : this remains an extra and not a daily food! Being very rich, the heart of beef could cause digestive disorders, diarrhea. it is difficult to digest (minimum 7 days) for an axo because it is the meat of warm-blooded animals, generally incompatible with cold-blooded animals. It is only given in an emergency, ie an axo which has lost a limb and urgently needs additional nutrients. It provides a very high protein rate to promote reconstruction. We get the heart of beef in supermarkets in the offal department, and in butcher's shops. You just have to cut it into thin strips (adapted to the size of the axolotl) and use what you need the same day, then freeze the rest flat to prevent everything from sticking. We thaw the slice (s) that we need and then cut into cubes. Reminder: freezing before use is pointless because it does not kill bacteria, but the beef heart is the one that is the most free! Nothing else is given in meat . Poultry contains two types of bacteria which can be fatal to humans, so imagine your loulou, (among more than 1000) which are only killed by cooking and not by freezing http://www.afsca.be/astuces/ chicken.asp . These bacteria can parasitize your axolotl: the game is not worth the candle. Obviously no pork, at the sanitary level raw pork is very dangerous, containing for example the famous tapeworm (tapeworm). In short, no need to tell yourself that your loulou wants different things every day, rather think safety, nutritional contribution. In addition, its digestive system being rather sensitive, it is better to stay on a very limited choice avoiding its system having to adapt and regulate. Do not donate a liver either! This organ is a natural filter in which we find all the drugs, parasites, bacteria, etc. The shrimp ? To be avoided, the chitin contained in their shell is poorly digested by axolotls. Their small peaks can create micro abrasions in the axolotl's mouth, and given the increasing number of various micro cysts and abscesses seen in recent years, this seems to be an aggravating factor. Young axolotls should be fed every day. When they reach 15/18 cm, they can be fed every 2-3 days. But as long as they are not adults (over 20/25 cm) don't be worried if they are crying out every day, they are growing. You will see if an axolotl is hungry because it moves around a lot in the aquarium, and waits in front of the glass. The axolotl is a rather greedy animal but which (as a general rule) knows how to regulate its food consumption itself. Be careful not to overfeed your adult axolotl as some people are prone to obesity. The principle is therefore to feed 1 to 2 times a week (adults), and at each feeding we give until the animal refuses (my adults only claim once a week), the more water is hot the more the axolotls are hungry. Pellet order Ordering Aquaterratec pellets: h ttps: //www.axolotls-cie.com/boutique-axololts-cie-aquaterratec You also have a table where you can register by department if you want to take advantage of a reduction on shipping costs by ordering with several people from your department, on the Facebook group Living food In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Personally, my principle is never to give anything alive (apart from bloodworms etc. to juveniles). On the one hand it hurts my heart (being an aquarist for more than 30 years I appreciate every little life), on the other hand for the risks of transmission of diseases and parasites. For example: neons do not reproduce in captivity so they are necessarily from wild fisheries, and when they arrive in ponds they are very very importantly treated with antibiotics in order to avoid as much loss as possible. These antibiotics will be ingested by your axolotls ... And here the same do not put Molly, Platys. They are much less elongated and can get stuck or cause damage inside the loulou. The ideal: do not put any fish, specialized veterinarians have taught us that many could be healthy carriers of the flavobacterium, can be quite simply parasitized by intestinal worms , white spots, lice, this represents additional risks for our axolotls which are not supposed to live in a small space with these fishes besides resulting from another microcosm. The earthworm, prized by axolotls, but still a very rich "food" which can cause diarrhea if you give too much of it or can sometimes be very badly digested, therefore moderately, even if we know that they are fond of it. Another less obvious fact is that they ingest heavy metals and various pollutants from the land in which they live, so unless you are organic and land without fertilizers, this remains a potential risk. Shrimps such as Red cherry are sometimes recommended on certain sites. We have observed that this posed concerns: on the one hand, the chitin contained in their exoskeleton is not digested by the axolotls, on the other hand the peaks of shrimp can create micro lesions in their oral and esophageal or even stomach cavity, abscesses often come from these micro injuries. Live fish contain thiaminase, thiaminase is an enzyme which breaks down thiamine, so vitamin B1 is sometimes called "antivitamin B1". Some fish, molluscs, bacteria, plants and arthropods contain high levels of thiaminase. It is therefore obvious that a diet too rich in thiaminase leads to a deficiency in vitamin B1. Particularly in the case of a varied diet with a low thiamine intake, this is mainly the case of a fish-based diet. A thiamine deficiency causes general, cardiac and neurological signs. Weight loss, anorexia, heart failure, muscle atrophy etc ... Salmonids (salmon, trout). Some Cyprinids such as roaches and gudgeons Poeciliidae (guppy, platy, molly etc.) Common eel Some cyprinids such as carp and crucian carp (goldfish!) Vitamin B1 also called thiamine or aneurine is a water-soluble vitamin necessary for the functioning of the nervous and muscular system promoting the transformation of carbohydrates into energy. Bloodworms have no nutritional value, so we use them instead to move our juveniles to a more substantial food after the artemia nauplia and we mix them with the 3 mm pellets in order to get them used to the taste. of the latter which ensure an adequate supply of proteins, minerals, vitamins and lipids. Nutritional values of foods for axolotls In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. What are the most nutritious foods for carnivorous amphibians in captivity? Protein: A good diet should be relatively high in protein. Fat: A little fat is needed. As in human diets, some fats are better than others. Calcium: When considering the calcium content of a food, pay special attention to the calcium / phosphorus ratio; the availability of calcium is affected by phosphorus. Ideally the Ca / Phos ratio should be> 1. Foods with a lower ratio should be supplemented with other foods. Vitamin D3: Vitamin D3 is necessary for the absorption of calcium. Some commercial pellets may contain an excessive amount of vitamin D3, the market leader special axolotl pellets, on the other hand, are balanced. Vitamin D3 can be obtained by exposure to ultraviolet rays, but most amphibians do not require ultraviolet rays. Vitamin A: Like mammals, amphibians are unable to synthesize vitamin A and must obtain it through their diet. It is present in fish such as trout fillets. This is necessary for proper development and physiology, but excessive amounts are very toxic. Energy (Calories): All of the foods listed below have a calorie content of between 4 and 7 kcal / g dry weight. The exact amount is usually not critical. Foods high in fat generally contain more calories per gram. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

L'axolotls comme ses congénères aquatiques attrape des maladies, infections ou peut etre blessé, le soigner oui, mais comment? OCCLUSION Flazzy Boyet OCCLUSION Yes, we often talk about occlusion because axolotls really have a capacity to swallow huge stones, alas ... On chippings which have the possibility of being expelled by natural means, one can simply make ingest using a small syringe (without a needle of course) vegetable glycerin or liquid paraffin for internal use, which s' buy in pharmacies. We ingest 2 x 0.5 ml with the axolotl as in the case of constipation, if this is difficult for you, do it at several times of the day, and make sure that he has swallowed well by massaging his throat , do it before changing the water in his hospital tank in order to prevent oily puddles if he had regurgitated stick to his skin and the gene and to breathe. If that is not enough we can help by lubricating the same way the cloaca and doing it delicately so as not to injure the animal. Feed sparingly during the treatment. The most severe cases involving stones that are too large should be taken immediately to the veterinarian who will have to operate to save the axolotl. Here is the testimony of Romy Hdn "Two and a half years ago, without having been properly informed about the soil, my little Miu had ingested a lot of pebbles and it lasted more than a month because, surprisingly as it was, she continued to eat and to make bowel movements. Quarantined when I (finally ...) realized that her belly was hard, every day pebbles were found at the bottom of the tank (see the astronomical quantity present in her belly ...) and after 5 days the difference is very clear as you can see in the pictures below.I was very lucky. Long live my little warrior, and be careful with your stones and / or other pebbles! " "In a tub of colder water than usual (instead of 20 ° C, she was in 12 ° C water), without food for 5 days. She expelled on her own. I massaged her stomach very lightly. every day; at the end of the 3rd day, as soon as I put my fingers in the water, it slipped between 2 fingers so I assumed that maybe it did him good. " In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. The gorgeous woogie gulped down a bit bigger than he could chew and swallow. He had this decorative pebble in his mouth! Woogie is an axolotl, these are completely aquatic. This means that the anesthesia protocols have to be a little different! An anesthetic agent is placed in the water and absorbed by woogie, then the foreign body is removed and put back into clean water (without anesthesia) which wakes it up. Woogie with the pebble which can be seen very clearly on his radio. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Now that he has been taken away from him he finds his home to recover from his emotions. Thanks to Trinity Veterinary Center for kindly agreeing to share this video and photos on our site. And again Bravo! CONSTIPATION The signs of constipation from an axolotl leave no doubt: the cloaca is swollen and red. Make no mistake, an axolotl that has not left a stool for 6 days is not constipated, this is completely normal given the slowness of their digestive system, so no need to worry. For a good transit you need a Gh and a suitable power supply, why? Because the GH indicates a good mineralization of the au, neither too little nor too high, so at 10 of GH it's perfect. The pellets are properly mineralized and calcium is precisely essential for the good intestinal transit of axolotl. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Hello ! I am coming to give you news. Yesterday I had sent photos of my female finding her very big, you advised me to go see a vet quickly, that it was surely Ascites. This afternoon, I had an appointment with a NAC specialist veterinarian in Courtry (Exovet SELARL) and this is what came out. After an ultrasound, he completely ruled out the idea of ascites, there was no fluid outside the organs but only in his stomach and intestines. So he thought of an occlusion, maybe after having ingested a lot of sand, following an X-ray (attached below) he realized that it was not sand, he then thought that it was was due to the diet. And explained to me that her food must have been too dry, difficult to digest and must have created a paste in her stomach that she could not evacuate. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Following this diagnosis he gave him paraffin oil (laxatone) and made him an enema by the cloaca by injecting him another oil and water to moisten the paste and help him out. I must give her 1ml of paraffin oil every day for 7 days, if she does not deflate after these 7 days, I will return to see this vet to end the life of my axolotl painlessly. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Since the injection she has been vomiting and shedding a little mucus and is getting air quite often on the surface, which is pretty good according to the vet. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. The Exovet SELARL clinic is really top notch, they were attentive, reassuring, and above all they had a good knowledge of the animal. They may not have been able to save her, only time will tell, but they did their best to do so. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. I really want to thank all the people who commented on my first post, it is thanks to you that I became aware of the situation and that I was able to help him, whatever the outcome of the situation. I leave you with photos of her just before the consultation where we can see a lump towards her hind legs and the X-rays. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Thank you for helping us (Axolotls et Cie group) In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Jeanbonch Lef Occlusion by food

Sur cette page différentes questions avec leurs réponses. Haut de page demenagement demenagement QUESTIONS ANSWERS Share I am moving, what should I do? Obtain large cans to be able to recover at least 60% of the water in the aquarium. Siphon using a hose (see the essentials) separate the axolotls in bags for transport if the moving place is more than half an hour away, it is the least stressful, otherwise buckets with lids. Place them in a cooler to avoid temperature variations. Then the plants in a bucket along with some water from your aquarium. The sand should be removed if the bin is too heavy or may give way with the weight when you carry it. Most importantly, the pump: we saw in the running-in section that it should not be stopped for more than 3 hours otherwise the bacteria living in the filter media, no longer being oxygenated, will die. First solution: you do not move too far and know that within 3 hours you will have had time to reconnect it to your new home (which means taking into account the time for removing the aquarium, depositing the sand and filling it with the cans and new water taken directly from the tap (except major concern which prevents the use of this one) otherwise even the chlorine will be in tiny quantity because diluted with your softened water. Second case of figure you will not be able to reconnect your pump in the aquarium within three hours: in this case, equip yourself with a battery-powered bubbler (air pump) so you will put your filter media or your pump if it is an internal one in a bucket with the bubbler, the bacteria being always oxygenated will not waste away. How to soften too hard water? By incorporating reverse osmosis water, or catappa leaves, alder fruit, oak leaves. Remember to check your water using your drip tests so you don't over-soften it. How to keep my plants, while they take root? How do I harden my water? You can remineralize it by using "Preis" which contains minerals but no trace of iodine. Be careful not to play the apprentice chemist, it is only to be used in case of really too soft pipe water. Otherwise it is always better to make a good water change which will rebalance all your parameters. By using pebbles (too big to be swallowed if it is in the axos aquarium and if possible flat to take up less space, and be more discreet. You wedge your stems and roots underneath and cover with sand while the roots form and spread. Another solution you use a plant basket by removing the lead, glass wool if there is any and you put your plant or your stems in then you fill with your sand. The first solution remains the most sustainable. Sera explained to me that this product contains iodine so do not use it with your axolotls How to remove eggs from plants? How do I refresh my water? I can use frozen water bottles at the rate of two or four depending on the liter (250 liters or 500) in the morning, at noon and in the evening, continuously, to avoid any temperature variation, a solution that works well as long as we make room in the freezer and that the bottle changes are very regular! Another solution: a fan ramp bought in the trade or made in-house (see in the maintenance section). A pedestal fan can also be directed towards the surface of the water in order to gain a few degrees. Mobile air conditioning also works well and you can also enjoy the coolness of the house. A very efficient cooling unit in some cases but people report too little profit for the rather expensive purchase to be amortized. So you have to pay the price and take an excellent cooler. Either by dragging them plant by plant by hand into a salad bowl and then replanting your plants as you go. Either by siphoning using your essential pipe in a bucket or salad bowl. If you carry out this operation in the last days before hatching there is a risk that it will open the eggs because the last days the pouch is very thin to allow easier hatching of the juveniles. How do I calculate the kilos of sand to buy, depending on the size of my aquarium? Very simple: my aquarium measures 150 cm by 50 cm wide, deep and I want to put 4 cm of substrate, soil, 150 X 50 X 4 = 30,000 I divide by 1000 which gives me 30 liters of substrate.

La couleur de l’Axolotl est générée par trois différents types de cellules qui peuvent causer diverses mutations de couleur dans leur interaction. genetique GENETIC Share Consanguinity? (at the bottom of the page) Axolotl color is generated by three different types of cells which can cause various color mutations in their interaction. • Melanophore: Cell that stores melanin which is a dark pigment (Melanos = black). • Xanthophore: Xanthophores are yellow pigment cells; it is a yellowish chromatophore (Xanthos = yellow). • Iridophore: An iridophore distinguishes a cell endowed with iridescence possibilities, like a chromatophore (Iridios = brilliant). All genes have two alleles. The alleles can be dominant or recessive or even intermediate. Wild type: The wild type Axolotl contains all three types of pigment cells. The dark color is due to the melanophores. With the xanthophore gene it becomes ocher or dark green, its color may vary depending on the individual depending on the concentration of pigments. The shiny spots, especially in the tail and dorsal veil are caused by iridophores. The cooper is a wild one without black pigments. As the gene is dominant for the expression of all types of pigments, all axolotls have it in their phenotype. The most important range of color is found in the wild type which has all the genes (from yellow to purple to green to gray. 8-) WILD MELANICS Melanistic axolotls can be white, gray, and black. In their skin the iridophores have not formed so the silvery sheen is removed. Their eyes are completely dark without irises and / or dull like with melanic albinos. The skin is also matte in color. Black melanic Albino melanic Animals that do not produce melanophores or iridophores, homozygous with a slight tint of yellow by the xanthophore present in it. AXANTHICS Albino axanthic They are white, but may have a slight metallic sheen. They lack melanophores and xanthophores, so only the iridophore remains present. So homozygous. Axanthic gray Axanthic axolotls lack the xanthophore gene. However, they do not differ much from very dark wild types as the concentration of melanin can be very pronounced individually. This phenotype probably cannot be determined with certainty by backcrossing. ALBINO The first type of albino is the white albino. It is homozygous for "d" and "a" (d / d and a / a). Presence of iridophores (shiny pigment cells) in its gills. White albinos have very white skin and red eyes with red gills. NB: Many of our white albinos do not have iridophores so they are in fact axantic albinos. Which will turn a little yellow over the years. The second type of albino is the axanthic albino. It has normal pigment cell migration, but is homozygous for the albino gene and the axanthic gene (a / a and ax / ax), which means it lacks the melanophores, xanthophores and iridophores. It is almost matte white, but turns yellow with age due to the buildup of riboflavins in its diet. The third type is the melanistic albino. It is homozygous for "m" and "a" (m / ma / a). While a non-albino melanist would be black, the combination of melanism and albinism "removes" all pigments except a tiny hint of yellow xanthophores on the head and back. The fourth type of albino is the golden albino, the gold: The Phenotype is albino A / A (missing melanophores). There are several different types of albino axolotl phenotype. Here are a few of them. albino gold (D / D a / a or D / da / a). It has undergone normal migration of its pigment cells, but lacks melanophores, hence the appearance of yellow / gold. Gold Albinos are golden yellow with yellow eyes and red gills. The dark pigment of melanophores is missing, the characteristics of other pigments are normal. Homozygous for one, can be homo or heterozygous for the remaining genes. This color variation was made possible by a cross with the tiger salamander in the lineage of the axolotl, since no Axolotl was known to lack melanophores. This sort of color is also known as "Humphrey Axolotl" (name of the scientist who first created this cross). GOLD WHITE ALBINOS LEUCISTIC To make matters even more confusing, there is another characteristic that has nothing to do with the presence of pigments. Harlequin: the pigments disperse in the skin, but a fourth gene is active, called D. Is it defective? Or is there an incomplete distribution of pigments? In any case all the pigment cells, such as xanthophores, Iridophores or melanophores remain along the anterior neural crest of the embryo, where they were formed and do not migrate to other regions of the body as usual. It has a white body, but dark eyes and is very often pigmented on the back or on the head ("freckles"). With special shapes, the harlequin has strong pigmentation on the head and gills. Summary : Axolotls undergo a lot of color variation Breeders often produce singular offspring whose phenotype defies the genotype of the animal. The axolotls "pie" (and not only on the upper body like a leucistic), the yellow leucistic with black spots, there is also the harlequin with orange and black patches on the body are just a few examples of what chance can present. But in view of the DNA of axolotl all colors are possible in the offspring as long as there have been crosses. So we will see new colors coming. Scientific genetic aspect (more complex part): The color of axolotl depends on pigment cells called chromatophores. These cells are melanophores (containing melanin, a brown-black pigment), xanthophores (containing yellow and red carotenoids, pigments and pteridins) and iridophores (containing Crystalised purines, which impart a brilliant iridescence). Each axolotl cell, as shown above, contains 14 pairs of chromosomes. Each characteristic of animals is encoded by genes on pairs of chromosomes. Genes for pigment cells are inherited independently of each other, and there is no known link to other genes. Thus, each type of pigment is encoded by two different genes, one on each of the pairs of chromosomes. These contrasting genes which code for the same characteristic are known as alleles. A pair of alleles is written like this: X / x. An uppercase letter means the gene is a dominant gene, as opposed to a lowercase letter, which means the gene is recessive. For example, the allele that controls albinism could be found in an axolotl in one of the following combinations: A / A, A / A, or A / A. If the animal was A / a, because a is recessive and A is dominant, the animal's phenotype would not be albino, but it would carry the albinism gene (because it has an "a"). Since it carries both "A" and "a", it is known as "heterozygous". If the animal had the A / A combination, its phenotype would not be albino, and it would not carry the albinism gene (the two genes being the same, it is called "homozygous" for "A") . If it were homozygous for "a" (that is -a / a), the animal's phenotype would be albino. Since "a" is recessive, both alleles must be "a" for albinism to be expressed in the phenotype. Results of albinism: a lack of melanin (the dark pigment). In axolotls, it also causes an increase in the number of xanthophores (yellow pigment cells). In the same way that A / led to a lack of melanin, m / m (melanoid) results in a lack of iridophores. These animals are very dark, with no reflection (light) pigment cells. M / m or M / M would result in the development of iridophores normally. Animals homozygous for "ax" (ie ax / AX) are axanthic, meaning that they have no visible xanthophores or iridophores. These animals are almost as dark as the melanic ones. Animals homozygous for both albino and axanthic gene appear to be slightly off-white (yellowish). The following table summarizes the color genes With a few exceptions, fertilization of urodeles is internal: the spermatozoa, contained in a spermatophore deposited by the male, are seized by the cloacal lips of the female. When hatching, the larvae attach themselves temporarily using "pendulums" whose ends produce an adhesive secretion. They have dorsal and caudal swimming ridges and special dentition. They breathe by means of three branchial tufts. The forelimbs develop before the hindquarters. Elimination of metamorphosis can be achieved by direct development which suppresses the aquatic free larval phase or by neotenia which eliminates the terrestrial phase. The aquatic larval phase is thus completely suppressed in Salamandra atra, which is viviparous. An egg hatches in each oviduct as a larva with pendulums, lateral line organs and gills. The larva first feeds on the yolk of neighboring aborted eggs, then it connects with the wall of the oviduct through the external gills and is released at the end of its development. In neotenic species, metamorphosis usually does not occur: larval characters persist throughout life, as well as the aquatic way of life. Neotenia is a specific trait that is almost definitively fixed in the classic case of axolotl, which only very rarely undergoes metamorphosis in its natural habitat. Thyroid treatment makes it possible to obtain metamorphosed individuals, because axolotl is only the neotenic larva of Ambystoma tigrinum. The causes of this facultative neotenia are poorly understood: quantitative insufficiency of thyroid secretion or poor tissue reactivity? CONSANGUINITY "In all the sexual species, that is to say all the species which mix the genetic capital of the male and the female to give an original individual, consanguinity increases the risk of seeing the appearance of so-called recessive genetic diseases (cystic fibrosis in man for example). A recessive gene is a gene that does not express itself when it is present on only one out of two chromosomes. If it is present on both, the disease is expressed. Inbreeding increases the risk of seeing this gene present on the chromosomes provided by the mother and the father. On the other hand, a priori, consanguinity does not make children more fragile or weaker if there is no specific genetic disease associated. There are many animal breeds from a very small number of initial parents and which do not suffer from this inbreeding (which must be distinguished from the defects selected precisely to create the breed in question). As a classic example, the English Thoroughbred breed in horses originated from three original males. If one could prove that such a species does not present any recessive genetic disease (difficult to prove), inbreeding would not pose any problem to this species. To my knowledge, in axolotl, no genetic disease has been demonstrated. Which doesn't mean there isn't ... When in doubt in humans, many states prohibit marriages between first cousins. The practice is common in many other places. When in doubt, in breeding, we try to avoid things that are too "shady" such as crosses between parents and young, brothers and sisters. Dr Larroquette (Castres Tarn veterinary clinic) In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. To summarize: reproduction, for example between amphibian siblings, can on beautiful and strong strains (for this you need to know the genetic heritage) give beautiful babies carrying the best of both, or reinforce a genetic disorder. So before playing the sorcerer's apprentice it is absolutely necessary to know the genetic heritage of his axolotls, or other urodeles and to keep only the strongest and healthy ones. When in doubt, refrain ... The Urodeles are represented by the current Amphibians which, in the adult state, typically have two pairs of motor limbs and a tail: thus newts, salamanders. Their lacertiform body is easily distinguished from that of lizards by bare skin, always devoid of scales. The front and back legs are roughly the same size. Their role in swimming is weak. On land, urodeles walk awkwardly with lateral body waves. When the development of the egg is complete, the majority of urodeles go through a free aquatic stage during which the animal moves and feeds. During this larval life, practically simultaneous processes of growth and regression take place which constitute metamorphosis. We must insist on the important role of urodeles in experimental research: it is on the newt egg that H. Spemann demonstrated the phenomenon of induction; it is on this same germ that the experiments of separation of the first two blastomeres, of androgenesis or development controlled by the spermatic nucleus alone, and of increase in the number of chromosomal stocks (artificial polyploidy) by the thermal shock action. We must also mention the use of Urodeles larvae to carry out Siamese grafts, or parabiosis, to create intergeneric chimeras (Houillon's triton-axolotl chimeras), to operate complete and definitive transformations of the sex (as did Humphrey in axolotl and Gallienus in pleurodel). Anatomy Skeleton The skull of urodeles is broadly similar to that of anurans . However, the frontal and parietal bones remain separate, the palatines are absent or united with the vomers, and the maxillae may be missing. The vertebrae are amphicoels or opisthocoels. They are characterized by the presence of long rib supports, often double. (Source Universalis)

des plantes c'est très joli, et leurs bénéfices sont nombreux, mais il faut surtout bien les nettoyer afin d'éviter de ramener des indésirables Clean plants before introducing them to your aquarium Share It is important before introducing plants, whether they come from a pet store or from private individuals to clean them. Snails and planarians lay eggs under the underside of leaves, for example. You risk inviting them into your aquarium. A tip against snails, bathe plants in sparkling water Bleach and potassium permanganate and sparkling water. * With bleach : - soak the plants in a solution (at the rate of 1 dose of bleach for 20 doses of water) for 2 minutes maximum. - rinse with running water, then immerse the plants in a bucket containing a chlorine neutralizer (Aquasafe type). - it will kill the algae Bleach may be harsher on algae than potassium permanganate, but may "burn" plants more easily. The algae will turn red or white and disappear completely after 24-48 hours! * Potassium Permanganate : - Buy at a pharmacy buy a sachet of 1g of potassium permanganate mix it with 1 liter of water. - once the product is well dissolved, take 5ml of this preparation (use a syringe) and mix them with 10 liters of water. - soak the plants in this preparation for at least 30 minutes - rinse the plants well afterwards (with clear water). This cleaning can be carried out on all the elements of the decoration (rock, root, ...) Potassium permanganate (KMnO4) can be very useful in the aquarium hobby. Please note this product stains hands and textiles !!! Potassium permanganate can be found in pharmacies (and drugstores) very often in sachets (small purplish crystals of 0.50g for 30 cents). It is true that it is a product which remains expensive but we do not need large quantities for the aquarium hobby. Potassium permanganate has a very powerful oxidizing power. It oxidizes waste more quickly and provides the oxygen necessary for this oxidation. It also helps fight against algae. Permanganate is also used as a disinfectant. Potassium permanganate can be used: either in a flash bath for the plants supporting it like the anubias. This also makes it possible to "burn" the brush algae ... either directly in the aquarium after dissolution (but not in a tank with axolotls because most of the time the solutions contain iodine). Bath to remove algae from plants or decorations Please note that some plants do not support this treatment such as Riccia, Cabomba, Myrophillum, Ceratophyllum, java moss Directly in the aquarium Prepare a bottle with 1 gram of potassium permanganate and 1 liter of water (preferably RO water). The prepared solution can be used for 1 month and should be stored in the dark. 5 ml of this preparation are then used per 10 liters of water. Let the plants bathe for 30 minutes in this preparation. If you need to treat algae directly in the aquarium (not with axolotls): When you pour the mixture, put it, preferably, at the level of the discharge of the pump and in small quantities in order to dilute the mixture as much as possible in the aquarium. A purple cloud should not form which could irritate the gills of the fish. The aquarium water will then take on a slightly pinkish tint which should quickly turn to a yellowish tint. After 24 hours, the aquarium should be exceptionally clear: crystal clear water. Benefits : Elimination of all algae except brush algae. The water in the aquarium becomes clear, crystalline. Increased frequency of spawning Disadvantages The filter gets dirty faster. This requires more frequent cleaning of the filter. Some plants do not support permanganate such as Riccia (duckweed), Cabomba, Myrophillum, Ceratophyllum, java moss. This treatment can be repeated every 2 days. In addition to this, you will need to know more about it. Carbonated water? To remove snails and their eggs, soak your plants overnight in soda water.

L'axolotls comme ses congénères aquatiques attrape des maladies, infections ou peut etre blessé, le soigner oui, mais comment? SEVERE BACTERIAL INFECTION Share Maintaining the axolotl is not always easy. He can catch a lot of diseases from fish but cannot be cured like them. Here the symptoms could be those of the bacteria Flavobacterium). This very rapidly advanced infection was treated by the veterinary clinic of Eure et Loire as follows: The recommended treatment is an oxytetracycline antibiotic of 3 to 4 grams per 100 liters of water. It is necessary to completely treat the tank, and this during 3 days, then to carry out a water change of 50% on the 4th day. And watch the rise in nitrites because the antibiotic destroys all bacteria, both bad and good. (Possibly operate a carbon filtration for 4 days then remove it and reseed with bacteria (Biockik brand Oase, or even Bactozym only). A treatment with flagyl was then recommended by the veterinarian in case. According to him, Dolthene can be used. involved or the incorporation of new plants). I thank Flazzy Boyet for sharing his photos and the care of his veterinarian who saved his loulou and certainly others thanks to this sharing.
