When raising axolotls (Fat Belly Newt), the reasons for failure are usually related to environmental settings, diet management and water quality control. Here are three common reasons for failure:
1. Improper environmental settings
Axolotls need a suitable aquarium environment to survive. Many newbies may overlook aquarium setup, resulting in their axolotls living in overcrowded or unsuitable conditions. An ideal housing environment should provide hiding spaces (such as rocks or water plants) where the axolotl can feel safe.
2. Poor water quality management
Newbies often neglect changing water. It is recommended to change about 25% of the water every week to maintain good water quality.
3. Improper feed
Many owners may choose inappropriate food when feeding axolotls, such as oversized live bait or stale food. This can lead to digestive problems or food refusal. Axolotls feed mainly on small invertebrates such as bloodworms, crickets and specialized pellets. Make sure to provide appropriately sized portions and feed them regularly to promote healthy growth.
