Hi all,

As I said before, Spyro is a 4-year old albino who's with me now for about three weeks. It's my first axolotl, actually my first caudate in general.

I got him in a small fishtank, which was so small that I'm using it for my two goldfish now. I immediately ordered a new 25 gallon tank. The tank came in 4 days ago, so I'm posting pictures now.

I think I'm doing it right, but I'm posting this just in case there's something extra I need to do.

The tank dimensions are 80x40x30 cm (width x height x depth). My filter has the 'rain' effect, because I have read somewhere on this forum that's better for an axie.

I feed him earthworms every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, on Sunday he gets a pellet of bloodworms. When feeding bloodworms, I use a feeding ring (see picture).

The castle is for him to hide in, because I find it prettier than a plastic pipe.

I'm using sand as a substrate, because he came in a tank filled with gravel, which he tends to eat.

I used to have plants in the tank, but he ate them, so I removed them.

Does anyone have another suggestion? If so, do tell me please :)

There should be a 'Manage Attachments' button in the 'Additional Options' area below the area where you write the post. Click that, and you can add files there.
 
or you could try photobucket. thats what I use
 
Ok, I've managed upload the pictures, let me know what you think!
