I Must Have Salamander Senses

[esn]

So I recently bought an Anderson's Salamander from my local pet store, thinking that it was an axolotl. Guess not. He's a lot more active, for sure. Anyway, I woke up at 4am with a sudden though of "I NEED TO CHECK ENRIQUE ANTHONY."

Turns out, he was swimming rapidly around the tank and squirming a bit. I was concerned, and, not knowing what really to do, I performed a water change (though my levels were normal), and watched him. After about an hour, I noticed he had defecated. Turns out, he had a small pebble in his system from the pet store. Go figure. I must have salamander senses, since I've been up for an hour and a half looking after him. What a troublemaker.

Speaking of my Anderson, I obtained him for fifty bucks. From what I've found online, that seems to be a really low price. He was in great condition too, which nice fluffy gills and everything. Lucky find, though he's showing to be kind of a brat already. I can't wait to start feeding him worms!

He's pretty much the cutest. He leans his head on the glass all the time. He's taken to standing up a lot, too.

Ed I've seen them for sale online for 150.00. That was the highest I have seen. Seventy five has been the lowest.

I know this will start alot of trouble but I feed mine rosey reds sometimes. Mine definitly hunt above them while my Axies hunt the bottom more. If I put in a dozen rosey reds they are gone when I wake up the next day. My Axolotls just look at them swim around until I take them out and feed them to my A. andersoni. They definitly have a different personality compare to Axies.
