Will these raptor carnivore pellets be suitable for Axolotls? I am looking for 3mm pellets and I came across these. I have put up hikaris sinking carnivore pellets ingredients as a comparison as a lot of Axolotl keepers here in Australia seem to use them. Salmon pellets are not available to me here as no one seems to ship to Australia but I have added their ingredients too for reference. I really don’t know what to look for in ingredients so hoping someone can offer some advice here???
Also I currently feed my larvae and juveniles bbs, daphnia, mozzie wrigglers and blackworms (depending on Axie age) I’m only looking for a 3mm pellet that will take up 50% of their diet as juveniles when they get big enough to take them and for when my cultures may crash.
