Hello! I just got an axolotl last night to add to my growing collection of animals, and her name is Gytl. I researched all the specifications before my purchase, and used this site as a good tool. She is black with red gills and is only about 2-3 inches big. I got her and she is in great condition. I am not sure if she is a she but I'm just going to assume I have a nice 10 gallon tank that is about 63 degrees F. I have a few swords and rocks, as well as a cave and a couple pieces of driftwood for hiding and blocking the current of the filter. This week i will be making a mesh lid to keep her from escaping. I will also get an aquarium fan when the warm weather kicks in. No heater or light, and i [will] feed her on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays about ten frozen blood worms. I haven't feed her yet, so advice on how to, what, and when would be much appreciated. I have had many tanks before, and at the moment I have a 29 community in my bedroom. Gytl like to sit in the corner sort of hidden...but has still seemed very healthy since last night, i assume she is just shy. I also put a black background in to keep away too much light. How did your axie get to know you when you first got her/him? When will she warm up (figuratively) and start to move more freely? How long does it take for them to reach adulthood? Thanks!!
