Hello, so I have a juvenile axolotl and he’s living in a 10 gallon at the moment. I was wondering when he gets big would putting him in an extra long 12 gallon or a 20 gallon only filled to 10 or 15 gallons work for him? Or would that be to small? I’m trying to find something comfortable for him other than my 10 gallon as I’m living in a small apartment and I cannot go to a full 20 gallon tank.

Axolotls can get pretty big. My boy is 10 and a half inches long and was pretty cramped in the 15 gallon tank I used to keep him in. I'd definitely recommend you getting a 20 gallon for your axolotl.
