Axolotls and Bettas

Been kinda sorta easing back into the fish keeping thing, after getting rid of everything when I was going to move. Figured I would share some pics.

I really love a nice, unique betta.

Dragon Plakat something or other


Aaaand, I have some axolotls. I love them, they are so cool. And for the biology nerds, both of these have Green Fluorescing Protein genes...so they have a greenish hue, and glow bright green in UV light.

I definitely think that delta would be a halfmoon if he flared!

Gorgeous! I so miss having a betta!

Stupid question--is an axolotls a fish or kind of amphibian?

They are so awesome! I miss my bettas, too, and I was always tempted to try and have an Axolotls, but I didn't want the hassle of trying to keep the water so cool because at the time (and currently) air conditioning is not always utilized! lol

So jealous of your axolotls!

Thank you guys!

Yeah I was a bit worried about the axolotls and temperature but it seems to be OK. The room gets a little warm now (my A/C is in the bathroom because of the windows), but they seem to be growing well, eating, and happy. I've wanted them literally forever and just bit the bullet and got them .

Oh I forgot to answer this! They amphibians, a type of salamander, that never grows out of the aquatic stage.
