Drip system

[ChrisW]

Good evening, I have had my axolotls for 6 months now and they are growing and feeding well. I need to know peoples views, is it possible to keep axolotl on a constant drip system as opposed to filtration. All my tanks are 'plumbed in' and set for a continuous drip system. Would this system work for my axolotls?

I don't see why not if you can get it to replace about 10% of the water a day (many labs do this) . Personally I would also add a sponge filter to provide some biological filtration and some circulation to you water column.
from my experience with these animals, the cleaner the water and the colder the water the better they do long term.
