My axolotl hasn’t eaten in weeks

You have 2 options with blackworms

Either start a culture in a 5 or 10 gallon tank - need a heater, gravel, sponge filter and algae wafers

or

Keep in a tub big enough for them to make a thin layer on the bottom, and cover with 1/2-1" of dechlorinated water and keep in the fridge.
You MUST rinse fridged blackworms every day to remove waste and debris they can die off quickly otherwise.

hi,
the axolotis is about 4 inches long. how long can they go without eating? If i ordered blackworms today it will be a few days before I get them. Do you keep them in the refrigerator or at room temperature? What do they eat? Any advice would help. thanks!
