What food can I keep in my axolotl tank while I am away.

[NateXD27]

I have two pet axolotls which are both turning 2 years old in a few months (they are in the same tank). I regularly feed them half an earthworm each a day (I will likely give them more soon, as they are getting bigger). Anyways, I might head up to my cottage and I am just wondering what food I can leave in their tanks while I am gone (for about 1 week), or is there something else that I should do?

Hi,

No food at all.
Feed them well before leaving, and then feed them again when you return.

1 week is not a problem

I was just a bit worried this year because last year, when I got home, they were snapping at each other, is it because they were only less than a year old?

If you’re worried about them snapping at each other you could get a tank separation screen and put one on either side while you are gone. They will have less room to roam, but you won’t have to worry about missing limbs when you come back.
