Now here's a question of my own.
I'm planning on getting an axolotl very soon, as soon as I get my tank set up.
I'm using this time to do all the research that I'll need to take great care of one.
For diet, I'm thinking earthworms (carefully gathered or bought from a local fruit stand thing that I trust), frozen bloodworm cubes (from petsmart a couple towns over), and axolotl pellets (probably shipped considering I've never seen an axie for sale here).
This seems like the easiest diet for me to handle, considering I'm not an experienced hobbyist, I don't want to set up my own food colonies (also I don't think my family would be on board with that lol!), and I don't have a whole lot of time for raising food.
Does this sound like a decent choice? I don't want to hurt my lotl in any way.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Last question. I have a TON of sinking shrimp pellets that I use to feed my single African Dwarf Frog (tropical tank).
Could I feed these to an axolotl safely?
This is the exact food:
Wardley Shrimp Pellets Sinking Tropical Food at PETCO
Here is the nutritional info I found, it seems to be low in fat?
Crude protein (min.) 38%, crude fat (min.) 2%, crude fiber (max.) 8%, moisture (max) 12%.
And here are the ingredients.
Shrimp meal, wheat flour, soy protein concentrate, hydrolyzed fish protein, corn gluten meal, brewers dried yeast, dried beet pulp, wheat germ meal, plankton, l-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (source of vitamin C).
If I'm horribly wrong don't laugh at me haha. Just exploring the options.
