Ok this is my third comment already- but I just wanna give this tip. I live in a very hot place in Arizona, so using a fan doesn’t work all the time. One thing that drops the temperature more is insulation foil on the sides of the tank! It just looks like a mirror on the inside too when it’s filled with water. It’s a very useful tip if you need just a couple less degrees.

Great video. Been a aquatic hobbyist for my entire life and even worked at an aquarium pet store for years and this is still a great guide for many to see. Please give us some more follow up care guides or even anything else you can think of with Axolotls. with 242k growing views you are top notch my friend. Keep it up

Was given an ice pack with my baby and was able to acclimate him quite quickly. So far so good. I have the “ hundreds of dollars” route. He is still getting used to the 55 gallon but seems to be exploring and coming to the glass when I walk in my office. We named him Horacio and your video was integral to get the set up I have for my little baby.

I learnt a lot from this video! It taught me things that I didn't know as well as going over things I already knew, as someone who was surprised with a pair of axolotls recently I definitely needed the crash course/refresher. One of the most helpful things in this video was the section on substrate, using appropriate, stone tiles to avoid sand or gravel was genius and something I would never have considered but will absolutely be what I use in my tank. Thanks so much for all the effort you've put into this video, it's an incredible resource and one I'm sure I'll come back to as my axolotl journey continues haha.

This was such a great video! I just ended up becoming the owner of an adult female leucistic axolotl. I think I have the axolotl adoption story to top all other stories. I work at an animal shelter in a mountainous town where we have some pretty pristine rivers and creeks with very cold and clean water. I also have a degree in wildlife biology and have a particular interest in fish and other aquatics (so I would absolutely be skeptical of the possibility of an axolotl surviving after being released outdoors). Recently someone reached out to the shelter claiming to have found an axolotl in a local creek. I automatically assumed they had found a larval native tiger salamander since they are relatively numerous where we live. The finder, however, claimed that it was pink and they were very sure it was an axolotl. We gave the okay for the finder to bring it into the shelter, mostly because we were very curious to see this “pink” tiger salamander nymph. I thought it was possible that the salamander was light in coloration due to natural variation in coloration and/or stress. As you may have guessed, the finder arrived with what was VERY MUCH an axolotl. She is a fully grown adult, at nearly a foot long. She is PINK with dark eyes. Now you might wonder if she was just the unwanted pet of someone who hadn’t been able to rehome their axolotl? I wondered this myself, but the water the axolotl arrived in was clearly creek/river water containing debris and even contained a live mayfly nymph which had hitched a ride in the finder’s cooler along with the axolotl. The finder had some basic knowledge of axolotls so knew they needed specific care but wasn’t prepared or interested in keeping it herself. I have been an aquarist for about a decade and have kept goldfish and other cold-water species before. Currently my only aquarium is a 75gal with 5 golden dojo loaches that are 7 years old and a forest of giant anubias. I don’t have space for another aquarium and another coworker wanted to keep the axolotl. They took her home but my coworker had some difficulty getting parameters and environment correct and they were worried about the health of the axolotl. I decided to add a strong acrylic divider (with holes for water flow) to my 75gal and house my loaches on one half and the axolotl on the other half. The tank is already heavily over filtered with a canister and a large HOB but the divider and dense anubias forest keeps the current to a minimum. It’s not the most ideal setup possible but I think it will serve my axolotl well for the time being and I’m really excited to have her. So now you can say you’ve heard one story where someone claimed to have found an axolotl in their local waterway and it really did end up being an axolotl!

Many thanks for this! I, the mom/financier/caretaker of the new aquatic-pet venture am on Team Crayfish while my eight year-old son is Team Axolotl. After watching this, the pendulum greatly swung to Team Crayfish. (And know I don’t go small/cheap/easy! His two state fair-goldfish are in a 50-gallon, live-planted SeaClear System II.) My boy needs to step-up/learn a lot more about animal-care and finance all the strict requirements of an axolotl. I’m not saying “no”, but definitely enacting a five-year pause!

Neither team won. 😅 I set up a live-planted tank for a crayfish but thought to cycle w/ just four guppies…because guppies are SUPPOSED to only swim at the surface. That’s not true, and realizing the guppies would get eaten, bought freshwater shrimp instead (doing great & also reproducing now 🙃). I wish I bought the crayfish because 4-guppies turned into about 300, at present, and are being gender-sorted into three other tanks now, and rehomed. 😣

I currently only have a regular 20 gallon tank, which is all I have room for, but in turn for that I’m trying to spoil my axolotl with as many goods as possible, and as much attention as I can provide. I feel guilty with not waiting for a year or two until I move to have more room for a bigger tank, but I really wanted to start my cycle early. The good news is that she’s doing great!

31:32 it can cool you water down. I was doing it as first method to cool down tank, but it is extremely time consuming. I had to do it atleast 4x-5x a day to maintain 19°C-20°C. I don't recommend it unless someone has time to be at home nonstop changing the bottles. Chiller was my next investition to my tank, but my advice is to find out if you can maintain temperature, I heard that fans doesn't work that much and in some hot places you can't be succesfull with it. Sometimes chiller is the only option and it really expensive toy, so if you don't wanna throw thousand $/€ to your fishtank it isn't the wisest option to get axolotl.

It's almost a foot long and we've called them mud puppies here so yes there still are wild ones here. Learned a lot on caring for it. Nature finds a way. Way up here in rivers by Lake Erie. Believe it. I only took this one home because it wasn't cooperating getting the hook out so I took it home to do carefully. I'm 4 blocks from the river

Tiger salamanders are native to Ohio. Their larvae look exactly like axolotls, and are huge. They are probably tiger salamanders. If they are truly axolotls, it's because someone released them there. They are not native to Ohio.
