Can you have two young axies in a tank with an adult??

My friend and I recently adopted two amazing little axolotls, Yella and George they're in an adverse sized tank but I'm getting a new big one tomorrow, I was told approx. 2mitres long but by eye it looks larger, I was wondering if I'd be able to get an adult if I had the large tank?
I've recently noticed a beautiful adult female at the pet shop but her gills don't look right at all, the lady at the shop didn't seem concerned but I surely am! After I get the big tank I'll have the smaller one to quarantine her and get her better but then can she go in with my young axies? I can't describe what her gills look like but I'm going there today and I'll get a picture :/

Not unless you put a tank divider in. Even with space the babies can get injured or eaten. They need to be within about an inch of each other in size.

Absolutely not, unless you have a divider they will just become axolotl food

If you decide on taking the adult axolotl home, you would need to keep it separate from the juvenile axolotls until they are approximately the same size (generally recommended to be no more than an inch difference in size).
