Hi, I'm the proud owner of four axies in Melbourne. I have two black/natural axolotls (Tupac and Bubbles his girl), one golden albino (Goku - so named for his 'super saiyan' episodes) and Rampage, a white leucistic female. They're currently residing in their new tank (with a cannister filter) and are very happy despite the warm weather. I first became interested in axolotls through my boyfriend, who, when he was young, used to always talk to the guy at the market selling 'mexican walking fish'. Now that we're both living in his old area together, we've bought four axies from the same market.
Aside from axolotls I own two black moors (Bert and Ernie), three huge calico goldfish (Yin, Yang and Rambo), a black labrador (Bonnie) and a Jack Russell Chihuahua cross (Kandy).
As you've probably guessed I'm pretty interested in animals and enjoy taking care of my menagerie, even though it gets a bit hectic when everyone wants to be fed at once, or when my Jack Russell/Chihuahua desides to take herself for a run up the street. I also like hardstyle and hard trance and going out in Melbourne.
I'll post pics of my axies as soon as I get my camera up and working, but for now I'll describe them.
Goku, or 'Gokes', is a golden albino with bright red gills who has a lot of character. Sometimes he goes 'Super Saiyan', which means he goes stomping around the tank and or floats by one finger off our plant mid-tank. Goku's the most aggressive feeder - I've lost count of the number of times he's tried to swallow my finger and once he just didn't want to let go. Gokes is one of our original axolotls, one of whom died for reasons we still haven't figured out, and the other one swallowed a rock bigger than her head (it was 2.5 centimetres wide).
Bubbles is little, black and a cutie. She's pretty quiet and likes to get up close and personal with her rock. She's our other original axie and is named after our favourite club and also because when she first came she had a bacterial infection in her gut and had a lot of gas. That's since cleared up.
Rampage is a leucistic female who goes on rampages around the tank. She stomps around a bit like Goku but likes to dig holes in our sand and sit in them. She's pretty new and came to us with only half a tail but is now repairing nicely and eating like a pig. She also likes latching onto my finger, frequently.
Tupac is the little man of the tank. He mostly hangs around Bubbles and they compare their spots. Tupac is new too but he's claimed Bubbles off Goku, which has Goku a bit miffed because so far Rampage has just been giving him the cold tail haha.
Thanks for reading!
