Axolotl

Is my fishbox 40 big enough for 1 axolotl? Thanks

I am not familiar with a fishbox 40 - -can you post the dimensions please? a two foot long tank is OK for one adult.

D 38cm x h 32cm x w 41cm that's the space that water covers (not lid etc)

The tank has a height of 43cm/16in a width 39cm/15in and a length of 33cm/13in.... For an animal that could grow over 30cm/12in.... That is not a long enough tank.

The dimensions in put are of the product, not its packaging (both are on the web page)

It's longer than 33 it's more like 43

The tank length needs to be a minimum of 60cm to be appropriate for a 30cm animal. Stock for the adult size

Is there anything similar to a axolotl that I could house?

With that tank, I would even hesitate to put aquatic frogs due to the filter housing - they could easily find their way into it an ddrown if there is no footing.


I would make that a fish tank. You can get a standard rectangular tank for an axolotl.
