Hi, I'm a n00b, I just got my albino axolotl a couple of weeks ago. No idea how old he (or she?) is, but it's name's Zero. I was just wondering, I feed my axy 3 pellets twice daily, is this okay?
Thanks,
~Becky
 
That is way too much. What size pellets are they - the size determines how many pellets? You should only feed two or three times a week. Is she/he actually eating the pellets?

Wow really? They're about 5mm in diameter, they don't say what size they are on the container but the directions say "Feed your Axolotl twice per day. Use an amount that they will consume in 6-10 minutes."
It eats every single pellet I give it.
 
If the animal is young and has to grow I would give him even more pellets! Instead if the animal is an adult I'd feed him once every 2-3 days.

    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.
