Axolotl and bubble wand

[bonitalucille]

My speckled leucistic axolotl keeps going up to the bubble wand and sucking/kissing at it then running away and doing this often. I got the bubble wand because she kept going to the surface for air. I think she likes the bubble wand but am afraid she will get air in her stomach from doing this..am i crazy and everything is fine?

Axolotls love bubbles. She will be fine, but by bubble wand do you mean air stone? Post pictures

Oh yea lol, the bubbles moving around kind of act as food stimuli, that why she nips at them

Better safe than sorry, but in this case you're perfectly safe sometimes they'll take a big gulp of air on purpose so that they can float around for fun. They can handle it, maybe with a big burp if nothing else. I don't know about all axolotls, but mine really like the bubbler. They play in it pretty often.
