You def. need to change the substrate you use. The pebbles currently with might be swallowed and possibly cause impaction, which is a big health risk for axolotls.

You also should have quarantined them for a bit before introducing everyone...who knows what the axolotls might be carrying. Better safe than sorry most of the time.
 
They were quarantined instead of me bringing the yellow one straight home because I had no where to have her separately.. The petshop held on to her for me for 3 weeks which also helped me too hide her.. I just had to pay little extra and she housed at the back of the shop for me...
But she claimed i had mentioned that i wanted two:confused:.. which I don't remember..
 
Sneaky lady. She could have fed the gold seein as you were payin for her to keep him for you! Looks very thin poor thing. The other one looks ok tho. Nice axolotls you have there. Congrats! Mel
 
I love the gold flecking on the wild type. Get rid of the gravel before they eat it and it makes them sick.
good luck with them

Do you have any potholes in the driveway that need filling in? ;)

Gravel is great if you have cacti, too.

I may be wrong, but I think the gold is actually a male. I hope Emily enjoys her new friend and that they all thrive for you.
 
they still have no names :(

if anyones got any ideas let me know

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
