10 gallons per adult axolotl.
I don't know how many liters that is but yeah.

Thanks, Google tells me that's basically 150L

120L is a bit small for 4 adult axies, I would say 150L is on the tight side. If you can find 180L+ that would be good.

Oh okay, the bigger the better !
Will try to find a 180L then thank you :happy:

I found one who's 100x40x55cm, would that be okay? According to a site, that's approx 220 L

 

[auntiejude]

Those dimensions are 200L when filled to the top, so a great size for 4 axies.

Okay
If I ever found bigger I'll take it

Liters are not as important as floor space for axies.

100 x 40 cm of floor space is enough for four axies, 120 x 50 cm for six etc. but ofcourse the bigger the better. There should also always be atleast 30 cm of water. If you get an aquarium that is 55 cm high you can fill it a few cm short from the top so your axies won't be able to jump out.

Oh okay, I thought only the liters counted! Thanks for your tips
