Please post pictures of your tank!!

This is my main axolotl tank which axi is in, stardust is currently too small to join her but we all know how quickly they grow. Shouldn't be long and they'll both be together :p I made the background myself and the sand fall. I will be selling 3D backgrounds soon. Sadly the sand fall doesn't work ( luckily I won't be selling them)it doesn't work as I got my measurements wrong :eek: I'm going to be taking that out soon though as it's a bit pointless. Hope everyone likes my tank set up.:rolleyes:

Love your tank!
The ground covering "grass", is that some type of real plant or fake?

Updated the decor in Abe's tank a while ago, I figured I'd come post a pic of how it is now. :)

here is a pic of my current tank, sorry about the quality it was just taken quickly on my iSight camera.

note lance hanging about the top waiting for a feed, as she always does.


I know this is an older post, just getting ideas for my tank as I want to change it, it is 65L, what size was the tank in this picture?
looking to get some sand for the bottom of my tank as at the moment I have gravel covered in large river stones but a lot of people don't agree :/ :)
 
This is my 29 gal with Artemis and Atlas in it. The light is on only for the picture, and since this was taken I've added some nursery grass plants at the top and a bigger pvc pipe cave joint thing. I also switched out the small filter for a big ol sponge filter in the lower left.

silk, I love your axolotls' names! It's fun to see how everyone keeps their axolotls.

We have been loving this small indoor pond setup. It's growing some java moss, water lettuce, water hyacinth, fairy moss, and golden pothos vines. Clearly, the pond has been taken over by the floating plants, but trust me - there are some axolotls in there! :D I think it's fun to have the occasional sighting of each axolotl as they peek through the plants or wander around in their little jungle of plant roots. The bright light is on all day, but the plants keep the water pretty dark, and all the axolotls seem very relaxed.
 
Foley's tank in the evenings.

*screeches* SO MANY IDEAS!!! Driftwood, plants, AAAAAAH! It's like heaven in this thread. <3 Everybody's tanks are amazing.
 
Love your tank!
The ground covering "grass", is that some type of real plant or fake?

the grass is artificial grass from namgrass. I had a few people tell me they used it on their axolotl tank with no problems. I just use rocks and things to hold it down and take it out weekly to be washed. And with saying that I have had no problems with the grass either.:D
 
This is my current 55gal build for my 5 axolotl. Not set up yet, just waiting to finish curing the silicone and then I'll be starting the fish less cycle next week.
Also, above the water line will be live plants, and tons of water-lettuce to block out the light.

Btw, there are some absolutely beautiful tanks out there. You all have seriously given me some great ideas for my build!

And this is my Baby Sinclair's (Taricha granulosa) humble home. She hardly ever uses her terrestrial part. She seems to prefer being under water and swimming through her bubbler. All live plants

I just re did it since the tank cycle crashed. Figured I'd spruce it up while it cycled again. Going to be getting some floating live plants soon.

    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.

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.
