what is safest fish or any other aquatic creature to have with axolotl

and also is it okay to have 2 axolotls in a tank, I go on vacation pretty often so they might not be fed for a week or so from time to time

I would suggest White Cloud Mountain Minnows. They are small (max around 1.5 inches), fast, schooling, low bio-load, and prefer cooler water, like the axolotl. They also tend to hang out in the middle to top of the tank.
 
river/ghost shrimp, mollies, guppies, platty's.
shrimp tend to be the cheapest and will also clean the tank.

Yes, it's Ok to have 2, or 3, (or more...) providing your tank is gig enough and there are enough hides for all of them.
Another condition is that they are approximately the same size.

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
