Hello all i'm new to the forum but have used the site a few times in the past for help with my axolotl, Archamedies.
I believe he is a male, although not cetain, and is about 10 months old, in that time he has grown to about 7 1/2 inches although he is not very fat.
I have considered geting him a friend for a long time but I am aware that if I do this I need quite a large tank and the other axolotl needs to be of a similar size. Hence lies the problem as I am finding it hard to find a pet shop that sells anything but very young axotols.
The pet shop where I get my guppies from told me they are getting some 4 or 5 inch long axolotls tomorrow and I was wondering if you think this would still be to small?
Also is there any problem having different colour axolotls in the same tank? I belive mine is a golden albino (yellowish with shiny eyes).
Otherwise does anyone know of a breeder around Manchester that might have bigger axolotls? And is it true that they should be ept apart for a period of time? How long do you recommed?
Any help with this would be greatly appriciated,
Vikki
