Well, I was planning on getting an axolotl (excuse me if I have poor grammar) and I wanted to know whats the minimum tank size for just one axolotl? Because I have read online articles saying you can keep an axolotl in a 10 gallon tank. But I want it to be clarified just in case. Because I don't want a poor salamander to die on me because of poorly given or bad information(misinformed) I also want to know if I can use "Wardley's Turtle Sticks" (the newest version also made for other aquatic amphibians and reptiles) or if there is a better one. Because I feed these to my frog and turtle and sometimes my wild fish like them. Also I want to know i have a heater but is it necessary? (I want to provide optimal health) Also does it need hiding places? I could get a cave or something or maybe a rock though I don't want it to get crushed by the pressure...would plants be better? Also I have heard as with fish it is good to keep aquatic plants in the tank because something about it giving off more oxygen and helping mature the water. Also for the water I thought amphibians did not like salt? some sites suggest using salt(aquarium kind). Also could i use biospira to age the water too? Is sand better than gravel? Is there anything such as black sand? Could it'd be used as the bottom? Also I will reveal my current location in hopes of a personal advice. Do they sell axolotls in New jersey? If so what is the best store in there with Axolotls? (I live in the north of new jersey in mount olive) any recommendations? Because, I am trying not to buy online. Because one does not know what they would get online. Also I do not want a sick axolotl so I really dont know if I should.... Not to mention my father would probably not allow me to do online buying because first off I'd need a credit card secondly he can be a bit untrusting. So please help me find some stores in New Jersey(us) near or in Mount Olive.(forgot to add) When giving me the tank size give it in gallons. As in 10 gallons, 20, 30 etc...
