Can I put these 3 together eventually?

Right now I have a pair of axolotls in a 29 gallon aquarium with a divider. They laid two batches of eggs within 3 weeks and I was worried about my female, she is still kind of small, so I put the divider in. After reading a bunch of threads on here I am hopeful that they may be able to live together again eventually. I thought I read something about them having a sort of mating season, how do other people handle having a male and female axolotl together? Is it just one of those things where I will have to cross my fingers and see? It was fairly obvious that the male was up to something before the eggs appeared, maybe I could try to keep an eye on it and divide them when he is swollen/etc.?

I ended up keeping 4 of the eggs from the last batch, 2 are alive and thriving. So this leads me to my next question... I have become very attached to one of the ones I have been raising. I really want to keep him, but unfortunately my husband has put a limit on my number of aquariums... but not size.

So, the point of my rambling:
Can I eventually (after the baby is much, much larger) house the 3 axolotls in one 50 gallon breeder? Not knowing the sex of the baby, if it was male would it be too much for a single female axolotl to put up with 2 males? Are the risks of incest too great? Is this just a terrible idea all around?

Thanks for any input!

I would be more worried about two males being territorial than I would be about the incest, especially if you aren't planning on breeding. If the baby is a male, I personally would keep him in a separate tank.
Honestly, moving the axolotls in and out to try and prevent eggs is going to be a HUGE hassle, a major stress on your axies and probably won't be very effective. As cruel as it sounds, your best course of action with unwanted eggs would be to cull them after she lays them.

Hmm, I hadn't even thought about territorial issues. I was thinking more along the lines of adding the divider when they look like they are getting ready to lay, not switch tanks. I really don't have the heart to cull the eggs, but raising them is a pain. Maybe it isn't worth it to keep the new baby, I had hopes that with a 50 gallon breeder it might work out... probably not though

Seems like so many other people have 2 or 3 axies together, I wonder how they deal with these things?

The male is kind of a beast, growing faster than the female even though they are separated so I know they get equal food.



I always wanted a wild type, but was never able to find one locally... I want to keep him



Maybe I will get a 40 gallon breeder for these 2 and have a 20 long for the baby. That means I will have to take down my planted tank to stay within my 3 aquarium limit... bummer!

I have more than 3 axies to a tank, but unless I'm breeding I keep it all same sex. If you don't have the heart to cull the eggs and you don't want to raise re babies, then your best bet will be to separate the male and female. I honestly don't think the divider method will work very well unless you keep them divided 24/7.
