Aquarium Water Test Record
See water parameters as a trend rather than a single reading, which is the only way to spot a cycle crashing before the stock does.

What this sheet is for
Track water quality and temperature for animals that are unusually sensitive to both, with the physical signs recorded alongside.
Who it is for
Axolotl, newt and aquatic amphibian keepers.
How to use it
- Record temperature every time; heat is the commonest serious problem.
- Test water as you would for fish, and record it here rather than separately.
- Note gill and skin condition — they change before behaviour does.
- Plan a summer cooling method before summer.
What is on the sheet
One page, top to bottom:
Printed under the title: Water parameters, temperature and feeding for animals where the water is the environment.
Narrow ranges — get them from a specialist. No temperature or parameter targets are printed. Amphibians are unusually sensitive to water quality and to warmth, and the acceptable ranges are narrow and species-specific. Get them from a specialist source and write them at the top.
Write-on lines: Species · Name or ID · Tank and volume · Targets and source
Table, 13 rows: Date · Temp · pH · Ammonia · Nitrite · Nitrate · Fed · Water changed · Gills and skin · Notes
Write-on lines: Vet practice with exotics experience · Cooling method in summer
Questions
What temperature should an axolotl be kept at?
No figure is printed. The safe range is narrow and species-specific, and warmth is a genuine danger rather than a preference. Get the figure from a specialist source and write it at the top of the sheet.
Which vet should I use?
One with genuine exotics or aquatic experience, found before you need them. The sheet has a line for the practice for exactly that reason.
