Axolotl
Ambystoma mexicanum
About me: Hello, I am an axolotl and currently gaining a lot of attention. I am actually quite easy to keep, but you should pay attention to some things. I become very large with up to 40cm, sufficient space is therefore very important! What should also be considered is that I will live on average around 15-20 years. Therefore, please consider my acquisition thoroughly. It is important that you do not keep me together with fish or other small animals, because I am a night hunter and therefore also like to eat fish.
