Anyone else keep or breed axolotls?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Tell me more, I was just looking into these guys. The only thing that has me hesitating is keeping them cool enough. Do you use chillers?

I'd love to see more pics.

Hello magpie magpie . Axolotls do best at 70° & below. Living in Washington, I do not use chillers. I find it easiest to keep their entire room or space below 70° instead of keeping each tank cool individually. The Axolotls pictured are some of my rare Leucistic Morphs, which I call Tuxedos; with a mix of Harlequin, Piebald & Mosaics. There's tons of photos posted on my Facebook, Instagram & Website pages. From what I understand.. I'm not able to post the links on here until I've aquired points; or something like that?

Beautiful! At 5 posts you should be able to put links and such up :)

Very lucky that you can do this, my tanks easily hit 80s in summer so no hope haha. These are unique and very cool

Thank you Hendre Hendre . Chillers are an option if you live in a warmer climate, I myself have not tried them but know many people in the hobby who have used them with Axolotls successfully.
