Tubbing your axolotl

Sometimes your axolotl may need to be tubbed for health reasons, tank cleaning, while you cycle a tank or if you move. When we say “tubbing” we mean placing it in a plastic tub/container of some sort as a temporary housing situation.
Be sure when tubbing your axolotl that you keep them in clean dechlorinated water (use only Seachem Prime for this) The water has to be changed daily, 100 %, if you have them tubbed for longer than a day.
Remember to wipe out the bottom of sides when you chance the water to remove buildup.
Be sure the tub is big enough for them to move around and filled with enough water so they can be completely under water.
It’s not too common but Axolotls can jump out of the tub. You can put the lid with ventilation on the tub or you can put something like a cooling rack for baking over it to ensure they don’t jump out.
