Re: sick axolotle.

So sorry for your loss. Especially after putting so much time and money into saving him.
I would too be interested how same sex axolotls fair together in same tank. I have two babies and dont know what sex they are yet.

Re: sick axolotle.

I have two males in together in a four foot tank and they've been fine, until a few days ago when one ended up with a bite in his tail. But I've seen no aggression, so I suspect his tail just got mistaken for passing food. I don't think there's any way of sexing axies until they're adult ie about 20cm long and you can see the presence or abscense of lumps.

Hi Lisa
