Hi Everyone,
This blog has been incredibly helpful for a newbie like myself raising a juvenile Axolotl. I picked up "Taco" on February 28th, I was told he was about 2 months old.
I've kept him tubbed with daily water changes. I fed frozen bloodworms multiple times a day and recently introduced cut up red wrigglers too. Here's a pic from this week:
I've had a 10 gallon tank cycling for about a month now. I used a filter from an already established tank and the parameters seem good, but i'm not in a rush to move Taco just yet. First i'm worried 10 gallons is too small - could this work short-term? At what age/size do you usually move from tubbing to tank?
Here's a photo of the tank setup, please let me know any feedback! I used aquarium sand instead of gravel and will not have the lights on when the Axo is introduced. I have an air pump in there right now (the clam) and am wondering if that's suitable.
I've learned a lot more since I first got Taco and set this tank up, realizing 10 gallons might be too small i'm open to restarting/cycling an entire new set up if its best! Any advice or feedback on his growth, set up or care is appreciated
