I kept two axolotls a couple of years ago and loved them to bits. Unfortunately they died due to a fungal infection, and I've decided I can no longer live without another.
I'm planning on only getting one this time, and he'll live in my 2ft tank.
My question is: what do you recommend as substrate? I used a combination of sand and river rocks before and it was hell to keep clean. I was looking at using slate tiles or chunks - does anyone have any experience (or pictures) with this? I was also wondering at making a latex 'fake rock' covering for the bottom and maybe the back. What do you think of this? Or maybe if I just used plain sand it would work better?
Thanks for any help!
