<div class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Axolotls are a species of salamander and, so, are amphibians. Unlike other salamanders, they never undergo complete metamorphosis and move onto the land. Instead, most axolotls will spend their entire lives in the water. They are native to two lakes in Mexico and are critically endangered in the wild due to habitat loss. Like other amphibians, they hatch out of eggs laid in water and start out with gills and no legs. As they grow, they develop legs. While most amphibians lose their gills during metamorphosis,&nbsp;axolotls keep their gills. They do develop rudimentary lungs and will occasionally &ldquo;gulp&rdquo; air from the top of the water. Here are some fun facts about the amazing axolotl:</span></span></div>

<div class="paragraph" style="text-align:center;"><span>When you first get your axolotl, you will most likely keep it tubbed in a critter keeper or small rubbermaid box until your tank is fully set up and ready to be lived in. Small axolotls do better in a smaller enclosure as they can more easily find their food but they grow fast and a big tank is soon in their future. While they are tubbed, water changes will have to be done every day or two to keep the water clean. It is important that the water used is dechlorinated. Either by using store bought spring water or by treating tap water with a dechlorinator.&nbsp;Here is some of what you will need to know when setting up your axolotls new home.<br /><br /></span></div>

<div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><strong>Tank Size:</strong> minimum 20 gallons for one and 10 gallons for each additional axolotl. As they spend most of their time on the bottom of the tank, a longer tank is better than a taller one.&nbsp;</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><strong>Filtration</strong>: Axolotls produce a large amount of waste so a good filter will go a long way in reducing the amount of work you have to do to keep the tank clean. Axolotls prefer water that is not moving, so it helps to disperse the water that is returning to the tank by blocking it with a bit of filter sponge, some tank decor or by using a spray bar.&nbsp;</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)"><strong>Decor: </strong>Like a toddler, axolotls will put just about anything in their mouth that can fit and can choke on inappropriately sized things in their tank or become impacted (stopped up) by them if they are able to swallow them. They will also rub up against (or crash into) tank decorations. It is recommended, therefore, to keep the bottom of the tank bare, or to use large, smooth rocks, or very fine sand that can easily pass through their digestive tract if it is swallowed. Any decorations should be aquariums safe (not treated with any chemicals that might leach into the water) and not have any sharp edges (think baby proofing). Aquarium plants can help remove nitrates from the water but remember that axolotls like cooler temps and don&rsquo;t love bright light so a low light, low temperature plant will be best. Anubias and Java fern are good options. Pothos and lucky bamboo can be placed at the top of the tank with the roots in the water as well.<br /><br /><strong>Water Values:&nbsp;</strong></span></span><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">As an amphibian, axolotls absorb things easily through their skin so keeping the water values at safe levels is important. Cycling the tank before putting the axolotl in it is highly recommended and the water values should be tested regularly once the axolotl is in residence.
