Glass cleaning fish + axies.

[ElHein]

Hello, everyone. Got a quick question!
My parents have a rather bit glass cleaning fish. Would the axies leave such a large fish alone, or would they hurt it? Would they differentiate the fish from other axolotls?

Hi ElHein,

do you mean one of these?

If yes: Please do not co-house it with your axolotls. Either they will try to eat the fish and choke on it, or the ancistrus will hurt the axies really bad.

:nono: No no no! The only fish you can put in an axies tank are ones the axie is going to eat, such as guppies or white cloud minnows.

Ah, thank you for your reply! Yes, we shall steer clear of those fish, then. I can see our newest one would probably torment the poor guy. And we wouldn\t want gills to be eaten!
