My little axolotl called Flitze, quite cute offspring of my adult axolotls.
If you want to keep some, please mind this if you want to keep them happy and healthy: never keep them alone (but no fish, except of e.g. guppies, others will hurt the lotls badly), buy a tank of at least 160 ltrs for max. 4 animals, many plants, make sure the temperature will never increase 23 °C (best is 16-20 °C,no heaters!), don´t use gravel of more than 3 millimeters in diameter (they can die of obstipation)and never add any chemicals for water treatment or fish medicine (causes bad damage to the organs)! If they get a skin fungus, what sometimes happens, treat them with black tea and mild iodine-free (!) salt water. If you are not sure, please visit a doctor who is familiar with amphibians. They deserve a good treatment, please don´t keep them just to impress friends...

  • Actually they can metamorphose :) but the differnece is that axolotl can reproduce in larva stage :)

  • I know, I´m biologist ;-)

  • No, it´s not an Ambystoma tigrinum, but an Ambystoma mexicanum (axolotl). They look quite similar. The axolotls don´t develop into a land form. The larva stadium lasts for the whole life.
