Hi my name is Gill and I just got my axolotl yesterday, he is called Sheldon. I am very new to this and have read as much as I possibly can about owning and caring for an Axolotl.
Sheldon appears to be happy enough, is only about 3 inches long so would it be about right to think he is around 3 months old? He has fed well both yesterday and today, he had a little bloodworm and 3 pellets ( which he appeared to be chewing lol) The temperature in the tank is 18 degrees and I have only large pebbles on part of themy floor. Plus a large hide and some artificial plants. My filter is very mild and you can hardly see the water moving.
I know this is a stupid question but what could I expect to see if my axolotl was not comfortable in his surroundings i.e water conditions, temp etc?
I put my hand into the tank and he came and investigated my fingers. When I go to the tank and tap on the glass he comes to look at me!!!! Is this normal? Am I doing everything right? feeding enough?
Many thanks in anticipation...just worried about the little fella ha ha
