Hello everyone. I haven't been taking care of axolotls for very long. But you don't have to do much research to find out that most people do not recommend keeping axolotls with other animal species, particularly fish. However, I feel like it often just gets brushed under the carpet and dismissed as a no-go.
I'm here because I want the opinions/advice of experienced axolotl keepers about keeping fish with my axolotl. But not just any fish, a species that I have found after weeks of looking for a fish best suited to living with axolotls; The white cloud mountain minnow.
They like almost identical water conditions and they will pretty much steer clear of the bottom dwelling axolotl. AND even if they do get eaten every now and then, I don't mind as long as my axolotl won't be stressed out by their presence.
This is a bit of an open ended question, but: Has anyone done this before? Did it go well? Is there a better fish or other species? Is it really just impossible to keep axolotls with friends? I await your replies.
