Hello!
I just spoke with a fellow Caudata.com member in the chat about GFP's being more prone to severe health problems, high mortality rates, and tumors... have any of you heard of this? I am new to Axolotls, as I don't even own my first yet, so this was rather startling to hear. I originally planned on getting a Wild Type and a GFP Leucistic, but now I am second guessing that choice. I would HATE to have one of my little guys getting so sick, especially given that I am far from experienced with these animals.
Would I be better of going with a Wild Type and Regular Leucistic instead of a GFP? I just want to know what would be the SAFEST choice. Thanks!
