Tank size?

[caitlyn]

I have a 24x12x12 inch tank, is this enough to house 2 adult axolotls? If its not, i have a 45L tank that i could probably use. My 2 axies are normally kept in a huge 1440L tank, and the smaller tank is only temporary (2 weeks when im in vanuatu)

in my opinion thats not big enough for 2 adult axies.

I think you could keep them in a 2 footer temporarily, but it wouldn't make a good permenant home. Bigger tanks give you more flexibility in decorations, filters, plants, and a little more leeway in water quality. It takes longer to foul larger bodies of water than smaller.

Good luck and enjoy Vanuatu!

wow 1440 litre tank,thats the tank i dream about having one day"feels my new 350 litre is now a lil puddle lol"yeah the 24x12 i would have thought would not be a great way to go wiv 2 full size adult axies i would think they would get mighty stressed together,and with lack of space, might turn to one of them nibbling the other one.

I had mine in a 50cm by 30cm by 30cm tank and i thought it to be to small so i got a three foot tank and i am going to put to others in with my gab.
