Hello!!

[xXNetRavenXx]

Hey, I been on this forum for about a week now but my new axolotls just arrived in the mail so I figured I had better post something (I had one before but I think the thread got lost, If I am repeating myself sorry John)

So I got Two wild type Axolotls today, they are bigger then I thought they would be, 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 inches long and decently healthy. No names yet.... They are both missing one foot each But I hope as they enjoy their new environment they will relax and begin to regenerate :happy:

I haven't finalized their habitat yet, I was expecting younger ones so I opted for a bare floor tank... now that I see they are so big I might use some substrate (sand maybe?)

They are eating a good amount today (one cube of frozen brine shrimp)

One of them keeps floating to the top surface of the water and flicks his gills every once in a while (possible oxygenation problem?) But I recall reading threads on here of other people axies casually floating about just for kicks so I am not too worried (no other signs of abnormalities or illness just stress of travel and new environment)

They look very pretty!

Did you get your axolotls from this site. If so how much did it cost and how long did it take to get to you house. Did you get to choose what type of breed,and if they were male or female. Please send back.
