I know that most people say that there are no legitimately suitable tankmates for axolotls. I'm not planning on adding anything with my axolotls, I'm just curious.
I've seen people say that African Clawed Frogs are really cool tankmates for axolotls, even seen some ACF/Axolotl tanks on youtube that are awesome. I've seen some people say that female Sirens are good tankmates, but I haven't seen any videos of that. I know a lot of people say that full grown Amano shrimp are too fast for most axolotls to catch and pretty cheap to replace if they do get eaten.
Would be nice to know if anyone has experimented with anything else.. Really I'd be interested in hearing any stories of any sort of axolotl tank mates. I mean, if an axolotl and an axolotl can be tankmates, I'm sure there are things out there that can also co exist well enough.
Also what are some things that, like amano shrimp, won't mess with the axolotls and would be fine it it got eaten. Small eels? Small crayfish?
And yes, I understand that a lot of people feel adding anything with an Axolotl other than an Axolotl is going to cause death to everything in sight, I'm not adding anything as my tank is just enough for the axolotls in it, but I am interested in hearing stories of other's experiences.
