The axolotl is carnivorous and has reasonably typical internal carnivore anatomy, with the main exception of the teeth If you own an axolotl as a pet, this is the book for you. Its teeth are pedicalate (i.e

They're small stumps, like cones)
With these it grips its food, manoeuvering it into position before swallowing it whole.
Output from a filter can cause significant flow and this is perhaps the most common cause of stress in axolotls Excessive water flow will, sooner or later, lead to disease The photos below depict an axolotl that has succumbed to the stress caused by excessive water flow. You can see the huge variety of axolotl colour variations in caudata.org's user photo gallery
Keep your eyes open for unusually coloured axolotls that don't match the descriptions here. A curled tail end is a sure sign of a stressed axolotl Aquarium fish remedies can be toxic to axolotls and it is inadvisable to use them without first consulting an expert. An axolotl that metamorphoses prior to when it begins to reach sexual maturity will usually lead a somewhat normal life
It will eat the same food and behave in a similar manner to the tiger salamander, but it will not live as long.
The eggs are white due to the mother being an albino (normal axolotl eggs are dark brown) They were removed from their parents' aquarium and hatched over a two week period in a small 45x25x20 cm tank (18x10x8 inches). Axolotls are not demanding in respect to their accommodation Laboratories prefer to use minimalistic containers that barely allow the animals to turn around, like fish bowls.
This book begins by describing the axolotl's obscure name and significance and goes on to cover its feeding, housing, breeding, genetics, and diseases
