Cube and a pellet

[Bunthree]

Can someone let me know if theres a link somewhere to how much a 6 month old should eat. I'm feeding a bloodworm cube plus a carnivorous fish pellet every day. We've had him almost a week and he ate straight away and has done 2 big pops. Tried to remove with a baster but then made my own poop scoop with a coffee measure scoop taped to a skewer. Can thoroughly recommend! Hehe

Hi,

An axolotl should be given as much as it can eat, but not more because uneaten food will pollute the water.

I can't be more precise. What does a 6 months old axolotl mean?
Its size could vary a lot depending on the temperature of its water. You'd better give its size.

It's roughly 6 inches long. Belly width of its head.

So it's nearly an adult.
You'd better stop bloodworms and rather give earthworms and/or more pellets.

Will do. Could I give say a worm a pellet and a cube to use up the bloodworms?

The pellets keep pretty well--if you go away for a week or something and someone looks after your lotl, they'd be good to have around. So I wouldn't worry about using them up.
