I am starting an account here to learn how to better provide for my Caudata. I just recently got my baby albino Axolotl from my local aquarium shop.
I put him in a 10 gallon for now because he is so tiny. I am using a Dive Clean internal filter with a spray bar. The aquarium is heavily planted with black sand and large decorative rocks. I switched his lighting from a fluorescent to a LED light system for heat purposes and I also run aqua cool fans to keep his temp between 67-68.
I do have a question for those reading though - is it alright to turn off his filter whenever I'm feeding him? I've noticed that it moves the blood worms and brine shrimp around and its a little hard for him to eat because he's so slow. Does anyone have suggestions? I'm thinking about paying for a feeding dish with a tube.
