I don't see a problem with it because it's really no different to having a feeding jar (which some people find easier as opposed to hand feeding etc). Yeah it's a cute little ornament to have, even without the air bubbles. I'm hoping to give my tank a more natural look by filling it with driftwood and plants
yeah the glass is for feeding :) i'll hand feed most times but it's for the times i feed axolotl food pellets. i made absolutely sure there wasn't a sharp edge on it before i even considered putting it in there.
i love the natural look, hope you upload some pics of it when you do!!

[QUOTE=birdyy;343544
thanks for the feedback SanderB, i appreciate it, but may i ask why you think that?[/QUOTE]

Because then your tank will look great and because the plants will grow better when you remove them out of the pots.

Your tank looks really great. I really hope I'll be able to find some similar wood. Did you get them from a LPS or online? And how big is the aquarium?

Uhhh sorry I don't know what a "LPS" is haha! But I got the wood at a Guarden and Pet center. I have a few pieces of wood that I got from a reptile store aswell :)

Here is my new setup.
4 ft tank with sand substrate and some live plants which my axolotls love lying on.
They seem so happy in their new home. ^__^

i would not have as much water in that, half a tank is more than enough. Considering the height of water and size of the axolotls its quite a distance for them to get to the surface.

Axolotls don't need to get to the surface really, some do just for fun
