My New Babies!

[kCm]

My little juvie axies arrived today and they are settling in their home as we speak.

they are so precious. as of now they don't have names...I was waiting to see their if their personalities before I decide. Right now my Wild type is they more outgoing and my Leucistic is shy. I will post more pictures of their setup later. Any imput is welcome!!

How pretty they both are.

Very pretty! Those are the colors I want too!
Looking forward to more pictures :]

Until then, can you describe what you've got going on in the tank on the bottom?
Black sand? Clear stones? Can't tell what the larger stone is.
Where did you get it all? I love how it looks!

Wildtypes and leucistics always look so photogenic.

Have you considered participating in the calendar competition?

Thank you everyone for you kind comments! My axies seem to be adjusting nicely. I am a but concerned about the Leucistic, he/she has been hiding most of the day, but I suppose it could be from the stress of travel and a new home.

My substrate is Black sand and there are large clear rocks in the tank.

Here is a picture of my setup (this is before I got my little monsters)

I have since changed my air stone to a smaller one as well as changed the current of my filter.


I do have one question for you all:
My axies haven't eaten yet, when should I become concerned about their appetites? They were fed salmon pellets which I do have already in the tank.

 

[kenya]

It looks great! Where did you get the granite looking hideys? I love them!

I don't know why I like it so much, it looks natural but pretty modern at the same time. I was thinking black gravel too, but wasn't sure how it would look, but, I see it looks pretty dang good

Your axolotl may be hiding from that harsh light.
Do you have it on all day?
Nice looking all in all...

They are reptile caves, one of which I purchased through a dealer we buy from at work, The other I got from Petsmart.

I had Rosies in the tank just to get my cycle going. They have been removed. I didn't want them picking at my little babies.

Nope. I only turn it on the light for the later portion of the day and sometimes night. During the morning hours and afternoon, I let natural light do it's job.
