Hello everyone I’ve had these guys for about a month they hatched Feb 24 2025 I just wanted to know what type of morphs I have they mostly look like wild type and one clear looking one I’m new to the scene and have always wanted to raise Axolotl they are feeding on bbs 2 times a day and the big ones are separate from small ones anything else you guys can let me know? They are in a food storage bowl for easy daily water changes but how long do I keep until they can be moved into a bigger 10 gal tank for them to have more space? And can I keep a male and female together in a 75 gallon planning on rehoming the other few to my pet shop where they will find them great homes :) thanks everyone I am new to this and learning please no hate!!!

Ones with the solid black eyes are melanoid the light one is an albino/golden albino or possibly a melanoid albino. 25% of young from a homogenous melanoid pair will be melanoid albino, the number of melanoids you have would probably mean its a mel albino, bit hard to tell morphs with young axolotls, be easier to tell when its bigger. Dont be in a rush to increase water volume, your still using baby brine shrimp, if you increase water volume your diluting the food supply. Poor water quality is what you need to prevent, lower water vols are fine as long as your doing daily changes. Wait until their back legs show and they can eat larger frozen foods like bloodworm before dropping them into a ten gall tank.
 
I prefer feed my young axolotls with daphnias.
As freshwater animals, daphnias stay alive until they are eaten.
Too big daphnias are hardly eaten but they give birth to baby daphnias.
Moreover, daphnias tend to improve water quality since they eat filtering the water.
I give a reasonable amount of daphnias every other day and it works well.

I've had too many problems with bbs (to much, not enough,...)
