Hey there!
I haven't had a chance to post here yet, but I'm Frey. I'm a teenager living in Canada!
My mom has agreed to, in a few months, get a couple of 40-50 gallon tanks. One will be for a bunch of colourful and calming fish, and one will be for axolotls. I have a few questions. I know the basic stuff already, but some things will be double-checking.
So, I know axies are kind of messy and produce a lot of waste. I also know that each axolotl should have at least 10-11 gallons, but would 4 axolotls in a 40 (Or 50) gallon be pushing it? I feel like it would be. Would 3 still be too much for a 40 gallon?
I also feel like axies have soft skin. Should I be wary about sharp ornaments? Usually resin ornaments/ hides have little bit of a sharp edge on them, and although I know axolotls can regenerate, I don't want to risk anything.
Is this sand okay to use? Would it be beneficial to the cycling process since it has extra bacteria?
Also, are reptile ornaments/ sand okay to use?
And, last question (for now), frozen bloodworm cubes (Thawed for feeding) are good, right? Those seem to be the only available things near me, and I've read they're good.
