Godzilla!

I think i brainwash people into getting axies

.. This is my boysfriends first axie.... at only 3 inches hes tiny compared to my monsters.. He sat in the petshop for a month with frogs before he gave in... and at only £7.25.. what a bargin!

He was a bit scared to beging with but only after 2 weeks.. he watches the tv and chases you and the turkey baster around the tank.. he even swims put for his worms!

Godzilla was very thin when we got him.. it may have been to do with having to compete with frogs for his dinner! But we feeding him once to twice a day.. and he hoovers bloodworms up like hes never been fed..

Anyway enough of me chatting.... picture time!

As you can see he has an extremly white belly for a wildtype.. i wonder what his adult colours will be like?
 
What a cute little guy! I am glad it has been rescued from the frog tank.
 
He looks so cute! I can't get the mental picture of a mini-Godzilla-hoover out of my head

awww Kim 'he' is so cute! bless him! his tail seems small in length to me. my babies have really long tails compared to Godzilla. but maybe mine r just weird! haha!
 
Lisa, what sort of pipe is that in his tank? The black one? Is it an ABS pipe? Here in the states, those pipes are used for sewage, drainage, ETC, and contain harmful chemicals that will really make your Axolotl sick, or possibly kill it, or just make it ill, and nothing fatal. I had one, I was going to use it and it and I found out some things about them from this site and from looking over the internet. If it is just a black PVC pipe, a regular one that is used for fresh water to pump through to the fosset, then I wouldn't worry about it, but if it said ABS on the label, it could either be for drainage, or for fresh water. The ones for drainage aren't safe, the ones for fresh drinking water, plumbing water are.
 
my juveniles have the same colour belly Kim. i just thought it was normal! lol.
 
My juveniles do to. My adults have fairly light bellies, I think they just get darker with age.
 
I will have to post some more pictures soon... sadly in the time these were taken until this week, his belly has almost lost its whiteness

Rheann, dont worry, i have the same make black piping in my tank.. and there are no problems with it, boyfriend dads a builder

and got it cheap for us. but this needs a bit of Kim styling with my stone/gravel ideas..

Hes still a hoover! And would not stop biteing while i was helping clean his tank... this is only a tempory 1ft tank.. we are going to set up a 2ft tank for him in the near future.. we're going to wait until he grows a bit.. otherwise we'll loose him! There is the other reason for keeping him on the dinner table.. he gets to sit in front of the air con unit... and says very cool and happy!

He's such a great little character, beacuse he is sat on the dinner table at the moment, he gets all of the attention. And he wonders why when we're having dinner, he dont get to chase our fingers on the outside of the tank!

phew, thanks for letting me know, Kim

Their are black pipes similiar here in the states, but they are toxic for some reason. They're used for sewage and I believe garden drainage. He looks like a puppy from the top view Kim, So cute!
 
Ok so we couldn't stop our selfs... Godzilla needs a friend (after quarantine)so here she/he is... Flump.. Pictures are a little big so ive posted the links to them..

Flump still has alot of growing and filling out to do.. only 4inches at my best guess... Godzilla is growing VERY well, and could quite easly fit Flump into his mouth! I'll post some update picture of godzilla... when my internet provider has sorted its self out!
 
Kim - Flump is very cute

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
