I'm thinking of getting another axolotl as a companion for my 3-yr-old female axolotl (I still refer to Brocky as a male even though his anatomy doesn't reflect that, there's been very little change in anatomy since i brought him home, its hard after 3 yrs to get use to calling him a her). It can't be good for Brocky's self-imagine, i know.
Anyway, the axolotls that are sold at pet shops in my area are all still babies (<10cm>20cm axolotl? I've heard that the bigger ones bully the little ones and can hurt them.
Would it be better to put the new little one in a separate tank until its bigger and wouldn't be such a target.
Also, if i did put them into the same tank and the new axolotl turned out to be a male, would i have to separate them if i didn't want them mating?
