Hey y'all. As most of you know, I have three axolotls that are nearly full full grown and haven't reached sexual maturity yet.
Then I have my two little ones. one is a little over two inches, the other not far behind. I was wondering if it would be safe to house them together now? just the two babies together, not with the older axolotls. Eventually all five will be housed together in a 50 gallon tank.
They came from the same place so I didn't need to isolate them. Instead I put them both in a 5 gallon glass tank with a glass divider and have kept them that way for a while now.
I was wondering if it would be ok to move both of them into a 10 gallon tank with out a divider or would they try and eat each other?
From what I have read through the forum, and having little experience with baby Axies, they tend to be a bit nippy and will bite their tank mates unless given lots of hiding places. I just wanted to double check because I have also read several posts where people are keeping their babies together and don't seem to be having any problems. Just a bit confused on what to do.
They're both getting too big to be kept divided now and I would like to start cycling the 10 gallon tank so that in a months time it will be ready for them.
Thanks guys
