So I've fallen in love with Axolotls now and I'm determind to get one. I have a tank that is 31 length, 13 width, 13 height in inches. At the moment I am housing tadpoles in it but once they become froglets I would like to move them out and use it for Axolotls. Would my tank be suitable or will I need to get a larger one? :rolleyes:

That tank would be fine for 1 or 2 Axolotls. Just make sure once the tadpoles are gone you do a thorough cleaning.

(The tank is a 20 gallon long by the way).

It will be perfectly fine for only one axolotl but
personally i would go for a bigger one just because then there would be more things you can do to decorate the tank
