Hello,
My name is Kaitlin. I have bred axolotls for the first time, I have aprox 70 – 80 three day old baby axolotls/ larvae and I am terrified I might be doing something wrong. My first worry is that I don’t know if they are eating or not. I have had to use newly hatched brine shrimp (rinsed) and they swim around a little bit but that’s all. I read somewhere that they should have red/orange bellies when they have fed is this true?? Also how can I make sure that the salt levels don’t increase too much since I am feeding them the shrimp. I do regular water changes and Ph tests but that won’t give me an indication.
Any help would be appreciated!
