Hi Everyone!
Brand new member. I recently ordered my first axolotl and the seller is shipping him Monday. I am so anxious!! I did so much research before purchasing him/her. First I set up the tank which is a 15 gallon, I took the hood that came with the tank off and used a mesh lid, it has a cannistor filter, sand subtrate, 2 fake plants and a pot knocked over on its side for hiding. I have been checking the temperature everyday and it stays consistently at 68 degree but I also bought an aquarium fan just in case.
I was so excited after getting everything setup and realizing the temperature was steady I hastily ordered without doing much research on breeders last week so I am a little disappointed in myself for that but I was just so excited
Anyway.... The only thing I'm questioning this weekend before my axolotls arriva on Tuesday is whether or not I have enough in the tank. In your experience do they prefer room to walk around or should I put some more plants for extra hiding etc.?
Thanks everyone!
