12-11-2007 07:43 by Linda Chenapa	From a web site:- Specific Care Information: Relative Care Ease: Average Axolotls should not share their living space with other animals (especially fish, since they will tend to gnaw at the axolotl's external gills), including other Axolotls when young. Older Axolotls can live with other Axolotls. The temperature of the aquarium should be around 16 or 18 degrees Celsius ( 57 to 68 degrees Fahrenheit). Lower temperatures result in slow moving salamanders with slower metabolism, while higher temperatures cause stress, increased metabolism, and more eating. The water in the Axolotl's aquarium should have a pH of between 6.5 and 8. It should be free of chlorine. Axolotls prefer swimming in relatively hard water. If the tap water available is soft, it can be supplemented with added salts such as Holtfreter's and Steinberg's solutions, the solutions used by Indiana University. An adult Axolotl should be kept in an aquarium at least 50 centimeters, or 20 inches, in length. Larger or more numerous Axolotls require larger tanks. The Axolotl's tank should have about 15 centimeters (6 inches) of water in it. Filters are essential as Axolotls produce a lot of waste. The water should be calm. They enjoy having plants, caves, and other decorations to hide in.

12-11-2007 16:57 by Big Rob	cmon fishfolk lets get the forum moving again
12-11-2007 17:17 by Jake Casson	I used to breed them. Google them more information. They will attack everything, always biting each others legs off so keeping with fish is silly. Worms make a good food. They dont like warm temps over 25 degrees, and can be kept all year round outside where they will breed like rabbits.
12-11-2007 18:44 by Woz	outside as in a outside pond jake!?
12-11-2007 18:44 by Woz	i.e no heater
12-11-2007 18:48 by Big Rob	how many one legged birds in your area
12-11-2007 20:19 by Jake Casson	Yes in a outside pond in the UK, as long as it 2 foot or deeper so doesnt freeze right through. Do best at cool room temp though being fed every couple of days. And god they feed well
12-11-2007 22:21 by Woz	lfs hear i come, im having some in the pond, i had no idea you could keep them in a outdoor pond, best do some research
