I'll just give you my generalize copy/pasta I usually hand out in situations like these so if you wanna read it when you got a chance, then you have it! Also has tips and purchase links for Amazon as well for different axolotl stuffs.
HOW TO CYCLE:
Warnings:
1.If your tank isn't cycled, you are going to chemical burn them with ammonia in the water. And they will suffer. Nitrate ( the final of the chemical process) can also burn the fish/axolotl. This is why we keep this number under 40ppm. If it is higher than 40ppm, change the water 75%.
*NOTE: Most bottles of beneficial bacteria say they cycle a tank in a day. Cycling can take up to a month in some cases but usually just two weeks if you keep on it. This requires constantly monitoring, testing and replacing most of the water in the tank when you get high ammonia/nitrite levels. You need ammonia/nitrite to be 0 and nitrate to be more than 0. Definitely less <40. If all your levels are higher than this, or if nitrate remains 0, your tank isn't cycled.***
Summery;
So basically, cycling builds beneficial bacteria which makes these waste breakdown chemicals go through a cycle of breaking down into a less dangerous form which keeps fish/axolotl from getting sick/dying. ... Most new fish people don't do this. And fish store employees try & tell them just adding something like seachem stability fixes this. It doesn't. An uncycled tank is basically new tank syndrome and it kills animals.
You still are going to need to keep an eye on chemical levels after the cycle..Occasionally different things can cause the cycle to "crash", like changing the filters or a high tempeture, or the filters becoming dry..
Once your tank is cycled, and you have an axolotl, honestly it's not that much work. The cycles the worst part. I feed my adult axolotls once every other day, I change 75% of their water twice a month, and add water to top it off / spot clean occasionally two-three other times a month due to the water I lose due to evaporation.

Ice cube trays for repashy( frozen is better. It's a jello. It will really trash your tank. So frozen is better):

Feeding tongs: They're actually tweezers for planting a planted fish tank. These can grip worms very well.. The Amazon ones that are silver suck and will make your life hell. Don't waste your money on ones on amazon unless you can find these on Amazon.

Anyone ever use mini icecube trays like this? Thinking of giving it a shot:

I typically buy Chick-Fil-A or Sonic ice, but this might be better to have on hand.
It was most likely the copper sulfate that did it :(
For the zucchini, I cut it up and blanch it first to soften it up, which is basically just boiling it for a few minutes but not fully cooking it, then rinse with cold water and stick them in the freezer. I like to lay them out on a plate first then put them in a freezer bag later on, otherwise they all freeze together in a clump. I use a veggie clip, and just stick it to the tank wall and it’ll thaw out quick once it’s in the water. I take out whatever hasn’t been eaten (if it hasn’t already been demolished) within a day or two so it doesn’t get gross in the tank
As for the gel, I use 1-2 tbsp of repashy soilent green, 1/2 tbsp of calcium carbonate power, 1 cube of frozen blood worms, and some boiled, dechlorinated water (2 parts water 1 part repashy powder). Then just mix together well and let it set 20-30 mins. You can cut it into pieces after it sets, otherwise I find it easier to pour it into these little molds then let it set:

Once it’s all set, refrigerate it and discard any leftovers after 2 weeks
Mystery snails eat a lot, but will always stop eating when they’re full and come back to the food later, unlike fish so don’t be worried about overfeeding. Besides making sure they get lots of nutrients, they’re pretty easy to care for and fun to watch. Good luck if you end up getting more!
