Well as planned, tomorrow I will be getting my first axolotl! First thing off, I want to let everyone know I'm fully planned for the purchase. I have a 10 gallon tank, thermometer, plants, some decorations, etc.
Now I'm not sure what type I should put at the bottom of the tank. Doing research, they say the best thing for your axolotl is to have large enough rocks so the axie won't eat it.
But looking through many photos on this site many of you have sand for the bottom. I would love to have sand instead but is that the best route to go?
Lastly, I need to still buy food for my new axie, I'd prefer to deal with frozen worms (if need be) or pellets. Do they prefer live over dead?
Thanks guys!
