they need tanks of a specific size or larger and the tank needs to be heated to a very specific temperature. i would say do some research into them and decide at a later date after you've done research.

sólo si usted fuera a cuidar de él dedicar tiempo y todo lo que necesita

not since it is not for pet and there are also many more animals because an ajolote so exotic animals are in danger of extinction so no

Yes! I assume you would need to learn a bit on how to take care of them first, but otherwise, I advise you should get one! I don't have one myself, but I do have A Leopard Gecko, and I really want an Axolotl as well. So I advise you get one seeing as they are adorable and, looking at a lot of other comments I read on this, they are easy to take care of, so Yeah! (Also get me one too plz TvT)

Only if you have the money and real dedication to take care of them. Don't get animals you can't afford. In this case it seems like they need tanks of a certain size.



I advice that you spend a few weeks to educate yourself on them and their needs as well as consider if you can take care of them.



Sorry if I sound a bit harsh but it's important to know you're becoming responsible for a life. This is something many pet owners do not consider much. Animals should not be an impulse buy. I know the desire myself. I've wanted a berger blanc suisse dog for many years yet I know that at least for a few years I am not in the right situation to be able to properly take care of a dog.



Good luck in case you decide to get one, but if not remember you've got many years left of your life :)

Ok, I've been doing some research, they're apparently good pets for beginners (which is what I am) and only require a few hours a week on feeding, tank cleaning, etc, and you shouldn't handle them, meaning no petting. I've also read that they like wider tanks at around 60 degrees F, with places to walk on. they grow to be about 8-10 inches, and an adult should have at least a 10-gallon tank. If they're stressed, their tails will curl up a bit. They also grow pretty fast. They can recognize people, which I think is cool, and they aren't too social, so they won't need another axolotl companion. They can also regrow limbs. The tank should also have a lid, because they'll sometimes try and jump out, which is bad because even though they can breathe air, their skins needs to be moist. They don't need any special lighting, and you shouldn't use sand or gravel for the bottom of the tank because they could accidentally eat it, and that would be bad. If you get a filter on the tank, it should be a slow one, because strong currents tend to make them stressed out. You should change around 20% of the tank's water every other day if you don't have a filter at all. For a filtered tank, it's a 20% water change each week. They can be fed small shrimp and tiny bits of meat, as well as fish pellets. If they get sick, they'll usually get a lack of appetite, and they can usually get sick from a dirty tank. They are legal to have as pets for where I live.
Yes, I'm serious about this, and I'm going to make sure if I get one, it'll be happy.

You should get a pet axolotl, so you could take care of it instead of it dying in the sea.
I recommend getting a blue axolotl, aka Mudkip. Oh wait, Mudkips aren't real...
I would probably get a pet axolotl if I could take care of one for the next 10+ years.

it'd be cute, but it'd feel illegal.
they are endangered species so maybe just get a fish

Somehow I'm not quite sure that it's a good idea to base a decision that will be costing you probably over ten thousand hours in taking care of something on a poll on a forum about a block-game on the internet...

So you should consult IRL people as well probably.

Having kept reptiles myself after saving them from their incompetent and selfish owners, nothing is sadder than seeing a reptile of any sort as a pet in a tank. Reptiles are not pets. I guarantee you wont look after it properly. Also it will cost a fortune in equipment which will need to be regularly replaced and upgraded as the reptile grows - this is usually where the neglect starts. Reptiles are very intelligent and should not be imprisoned for our amusement.



Cats and Dogs are pets.



Reptiles belong in nature.

Axolotl's are a very big commitment, and a lot of the time after a year or 2 people get tired of taking care of them, because of the workload, so If you are down to take care of them for the next 10 or so years, then yes! And if that sounds like too much work, then probably not.

They usually live up to about 10 - 15 years, although in rare cases some can live up to 20 - 25 years - it's a pretty big commitment if you do decide to get one.
