What about Water Dragons (Axolotl) Tank Mates?
An important consideration for tank mates is that the Water Dragons (Axolotls) like cold water 57 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Water Dragons cannot be kept with other fish because fish like to nip at the Water Dragon gills. Also a Water Dragon will eat any thing they can fit in their month including other smaller Water Dragons. However, you do see Water Dragons with small feeder fish; like Rosy Minnows, small Gold Fish and Guppies, but these fish are being used as a live food source for the Water Dragon.

What about the water? 
Water Dragons (Axolotls) like Cold Clean Water. You can use tap water for your water changes but let the water run so that it gets as cold as possible. You need to change water once per week and up to 100%. It is better to change too much water than too little. If your tap water is safe for you to drink then it will be safe for a Water Dragon that are 3 months or older, so you can leave the chlorine in your water. However, if your tap water is not safe to drink then it would not be safe for your Water Dragon. You will need to check with your local government to see how you can make your water safe for drinking, either by using water filters and or a reverse osmosis water filter.

Water Dragons have lungs like we do and are air breathers, unlike fish that has gills and would breathe the chlorine in the water. The chlorine will turn into a gas and be out of the tank within 24 hrs. By leaving the chlorine in your water it will kill any harmful bacteria and fungus that may be on the Water Dragons or in the tank.

One last point regarding chlorine, as you know swimming pools have chlorine levels that are 1,000s of times higher than drinking water. Can you please tell me how many people have died from swimming in chlorinated pools? Please include Babies and competitive Swimmer who swim up to 4 hrs per day in a chlorinated pool; in your total. ... And the ANSWER is 0 ... No person has ever die from swimming in a chlorinated pool, which has chlorine levels 1,000s of times higher than drinking water; because Water Dragons and Humans are air breather and use their lungs to breath the Air not the Water. By taking time to do water changes each week this will greatly extend the life of your Water Dragons.

How do I do a water change? 
The first thing you need to do is remove the Water Dragon from the tank. You can do this by using a big net so that your Water Dragon cannot jump out. Put the water dragon in a container that has never been contaminated by soap and any other chemicals that may harm your Water Dragon. Make sure that this container has enough water to cover the Water Dragon completely.

Now that your Water Dragon is out of the tank; if you have a floor drain nearby, you can use a long siphon hose that will reach the floor drain and siphon the water into the floor drain, and will need to buy a Water Quality Drinking Hose to fill your tank.

If you do not have a floor drain, you can use a new 5 gallon bucket.  Buy a new 5 gallon bucket to make sure that this bucket has never been contaminated by soap and any other chemicals that may kill your water dragon. If you do not have a floor drain near by then you can use a 3-4 foot hose to siphon water out of the tank and into a 5 gallon bucket. If you have a 10 gallon tank then they should take you to three trips before all the water is removed from the tank.

In the summer; use only cold water; let it run for a minute or two, so that it gets as cold as possible.

In the winter; if your tap water is too cold, then try to match the temperature of the water in your tank.

Then fill your tank up using the New 5 gallon bucket.  If you have no filter on your tank I recommend that you do a 90% water change once per week.

If you have a filter on your tank you need do at least a 90% water change once per week. It is better to change too much water than too little. Whether or not you have a filter you will need to do water changes every week. By doing water changes every week this will help stop the build up of ammonia in your tank. The ammonia is coming from your Water Dragon’s urine and if left at high levels will kill your axolotl. 

My water is cloudy what should I do?
If you just did water change and you have Sand at the bottom of your tank, then wait 24 hours and it should go a way. If your water is cloudy and you did not do a water change then you need to do a water change as soon as possible. The cloudy water is from too much waste and or too much uneaten food. Your Water Dragon will live longer if you keep the water as clean as possible.  

My axolotl is not moving, is this normal? 
A Water Dragon (Axolotl) will typically spend most of their time relatively motionless on the bottom of the tank. However, if you have live food in with your Water Dragon, like a live Rosy Minnow or live worms, then their predator instinct will take over and your Water Dragon will try to find a way to get some lunch. Water Dragons will try to catch live food is by ambushing it, rather than chase it. We at Buy-Axolotls.com we feed our “Water Dragons floating pellets” rather than sinking pellets. Because Water Dragons have their eyes on top of their head, they are always searching above for possible food opportunities. When you do see your Water Dragon move it is usually because they need to get a gulp of air. Water Dragons have lungs like us and need to come to the surface of the water in order to breathe.  Water Dragon also flicks their gills from time to time.

Are Water Dragons Eco-Friendly? 
Yes, Water Dragons are Eco-Friendly and have a very small carbon footprint because they do not require the use of electricity. You do not need a tank light or filtration system (if you do weekly water changes); because of this Water Dragons are one of the most Eco-Friendly pet.

Are Water Dragons Child Friendly?
Yes, Water Dragons are completely child friendly; they do not bite, have no claws and are not poisonous. Also Water Dragons do not breathe fire. Because of this Water Dragons do not require any safety precautions

Can I hold my Axolotl?
I don't recommend that you hold your axolotl. First of all your axolotl has a protective slime coat and by holding him you would remove some of that protection. Also axolotl's protect themselves by doing a tail flip that turns the axolotl 90° in less than a second, if your axolotl should accidentally fall out of your hand he would probably die. The reason for this is that the skeleton of the axolotl is very delicate because he spends his entire life in water. So any fall would probably kill your axolotl.  

How often do you feed a Water Dragon? 
I feed my Water Dragons 3 times per week; Monday, Wednesday and Friday. After 24 hrs on; Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, I remove all uneaten food and waste to prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria in your tank. You can remove all uneaten food and waste with a net; or you can use a 1/4 siphon hose (about 4ft long) to get all the uneaten food and waste out, by siphoning it to a bucket. You can buy the tubing/hose at Home Depot or any other home center. It is better to feed too little than too much.  

How much food do I feed my Water Dragon?
The amount will change over time, for now start feeding Qty 1 Water Dragon (3 to 4 inches Long) 2 pellets or 6 bloodworms per feeding. When you see that they are eating all of food a majority of time you can start feeding 3 pellets or 8 bloodworms per feeding (and so on). After 24 hours, you must remove all uneaten food and waste to prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria in your tank. You can remove all uneaten food and waste with a small net. I find it easier to use a 1/4 siphon hose (about 4ft long) to get all the uneaten food and waste out, by siphoning it to a bucket. You can buy the tubing/hose at Home Depot or any other home center. It is better to feed too little than too much.

Then present it to your Water Dragon's mouth. He should eat it. Depending on the size Water Dragons they will eat 2-3 to Rosy Minnows per week. It is important that the Rosy Minnows are smaller than your Water Dragon’s mouth. Also make sure that you buy healthy Rosy Minnows that are not sick. If a minnow is sick, take it out so that it cannot be eaten. Rosy Minnows are a great food source for an Adult Water Dragon (Axolotl)

When feeding worms like Red Wiggler Worms or Nightcrawlers Worms, you need to chop them up into bite size portions. Any leftover food needs to be removed after 24 hours to prevent bacteria in your tank. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Homedepot or any other home center.

Remove any uneaten food and waste after 24 hours so that your axolotl will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Homedepot or any other home center.

When feeding live worms like Red Wiggler Worms or Nightcrawlers Worms you must make sure that the worms are bite-size.  You will need to either buy small worms or chop up large earthworms. Feed as many worms as your Water Dragon (axolotl) will eat and feed your Water Dragon (axolotl) three times per week. Remove any uneaten food after 24 hours so that your axolotl will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Homedepot or any other home center.

For a 2-3 inch size Water Dragon it is best to feed them frozen Bloodworms or live California Blackworms. For frozen bloodworms first let them defrost then use a tweezers and present the blood worms in front of your Water Dragon (axolotl's) mouth. Feed as many frozen Bloodworms or live California Blackworms as your Water Dragon (axolotl) will eat and feed your Water Dragon (axolotl) three times per week. Remove any uneaten food after 24 hours so that your axolotl will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Homedepot or any other home center.

When feeding Water Dragon (axolotl) pellets you should start feeding three pellets per Water Dragon (axolotl) three times a week. If your axolotl eats all the pellets then raise of pellets the number by one, and so on as your Water Dragon (axolotl) gets bigger. Remove any uneaten food after 24 hours so that your axolotl will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Home Depot or any other home center. 

What is the best way to feed my Water Dragon while on vacation?
I would recommend that you buy Rosy Minnows. Petsmart and Petco sells these feeder fish for about 15 cents each. You need to lower the tank water to be about 1 inch above your axolotl's head so that he's able to reach the feeder fish. Also it is important that the feeder fish are smaller than your Water Dragon’s mouth.

How much waste does an axolotl produce a week and how often must I clean it?
A Water Dragon (Axolotl) produces about 2 to 3 pieces of solid waste per week. The waste can easily be cleaned up by using a small net.

Is a Water Dragon (axolotl) disease-prone? 
Water Dragons are very hardy animals, however they are prone to a bacterial and fungal problem if you do not do change the water weekly or if the water temperature is too high you will be putting your Water Dragon at risk for these problems. I also recommend that you keep the chlorine in the water as a preventative to kill any bacterial and fungal problem that may be on your Water Dragon or in your tank. 

My Water Dragon sick and won’t eat what should I do?
Try feeding LIVE food like; Rosy Minnows or Californian Black Worms or Red Wiggler Worms. You can buy them at Petsmart and Petco or your local tropical fish store. If your Water Dragon is big enough you can feed them Rosy Minnows. Use a net and catch a Rosy Minnow then grab the Rosy Minnows by the tail fin. Then present it to your Water Dragon's mouth. He should eat it. Depending on the size Water Dragons they will eat 2-3 to Rosy Minnows per week. It is important that you buy Rosy Minnows that are smaller than your Water Dragon’s mouth. Also make sure that you buy healthy Rosy Minnows that are not sick. If a minnow is sick you will see a sunken belly do buy them or feed them. Rosy Minnows are a great food source for an Adult Water Dragon (Axolotl) Only feed one Rosy Minnow per day and up to three times per week. Remove any uneaten food and waste after 24 hours so that your axolotl will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or you can use a siphon. A siphon is a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Homedepot or any other home centers.
 
It is a Water Dragon natural instinct to grab and eat the minnow. If he does not eat the minnow the first time try again in an hour.  If he will not eat minnows then try live Californian Black Worms or live Red Wiggler Worms.

What is the best way to take the Water Dragon (Axolotl) out of the shipping bag?
The best way to remove the Water Dragon (axolotl) from the shipping bags is to use a scissors to cut the top of the bag. Then slowly pour the water and the Water Dragon in to the tank. 

I have noticed my Water Dragon (axolotl) is floating around on top of the tank. Is there a problem? 
This behavior should not be a problem; most times it is just normal behavior for a Water Dragon (Axolotl). However, if your axolotl is struggling to reach the bottom of the tank, then you may have a medical problem called Swim Bladder. Swim Bladder is bacterial infections caused by either you have a poor water quality or the water temperature in your tank is too high. At Buy-Axolotls.com we recommend the following treatment. First put you Water Dragon in a Sick Tank. Buy a 2 ½ gallon tank at a local tropical fish store. At Buy-Axolotls.com we like to use the 2 ½ gallon tank because the tank are easier to move around. Then lower the water level down to about 1 inch higher that the size of the Water Dragon, so that the Water Dragon does not have to struggle to eat. You do not need a filter or airstone because you will be changing the water every day.  Swim Bladder disease is a type of infection.

You can use API Aquarium Salt bath treatment. Put your Water Dragon in a 2 ½ gallon tank you can buy at a local tropical fish store. Do not filter the water. Cold water only, put the water level 1 inch higher than the size of the Water Dragon. This will allow the Water Dragon to reach the bottom so they can get to their food. Feed live food only; like Rosy Minnows or California Black Worms. The standard dose one tablespoon of API Aquarium Salt. Change the water every day and add one tablespoon of API Aquarium Salt for each water change.

Or a medication treatment for Swim Bladder is Kanaplex; you can only buy this on the internet. The next best medicine is to buy Jungle Fungus Eliminator or Clear, these can be purchased at your local Petsmart or PetCo  and or your tropical fish store. I do not recommend that you use Maracyn 1 and 2 because of the over use and many infections do not respond to this medicine. You need to treat daily for 3 days and do 100% water change each day. If necessary retreat for another 3 days. Feed only live food like Rosy Minnows, live worms or live California Blackworms during this time. 

My room temperature is around 76F with no cooling what do you recommend? 
I would recommend that you put the tank on the floor or buy a Water Chiller or you can make a Water Chiller (See Above for DYI Water Chiller). It should be cooler on the floor away from any heating vents. You need to maintain a temperature of less than 72F degrees.

My Water Dragons do not move around is some thing wrong? 
Water Dragons (axolotls) do not move around too much because they are cold blooded animals. Most of the time you will see them come to the surface to get a breath of air, Water Dragons are air breathers and have lungs like us.

How do I know if my Water Dragon (axolotl) is sick and what do I do? 
It is very hard to detect a sick Water Dragon (axolotl) and usually when you do it's probably too late to help. So the preventive is the best cure…you need to maintain cold clean water for your Water Dragon. 

I had two Water Dragon (axolotl) and now they are both dead. Can you tell me what happen? 
More often than not, when you have two or more Water Dragons die at the same time in the same tank the cause is usually chemicals based. Either, you did not change the water and there was ammonia build up in your tank or chemicals like cleaning solutions came in contact with your tank. You need to make sure that you only use clean water to clean you tank and the 5 gallon bucket you use has never had any chemicals like cleaning solutions in it. Also make sure that you change your water weekly to avoid the build up of ammonia that comes from your Water Dragon’s urine.

Should I use ice bottles to keep the temperature down? 
Please do not use ice bottles, you can kill your Water Dragon (Axolotl). Changing temperature rapidly is an easy way to kill your Water Dragon than if you maintain a high stable temperature. Ice bottles cause the temperature to go down too fast. After the ice melts the temperature will begin to climb back up once again. This is a very effective way to kill your Water Dragon because the temperature changes are too rapidly. 

I understand that axolotls in the cannibalistic stage cannot be housed together. Does this apply to all types of Water Dragons (Axolotls)?
Yes it does apply to all types of Water Dragons (Axolotls). If a Water Dragons is under one year of age they are cannibalistic no matter what type they are. If your Water Dragons is less than one year old you will need to either use a tank divider or separate tank to house these Water Dragons. 

My Water Dragon (axolotl) skin is peeling off / shedding off. What should I do?
This is normal for a Water Dragon (axolotl) peeling off / shedding off their skin. Put your Water Dragon in a 2 1/2 Gallon tank and do water changes every day. You need to maintain the best possible water quality; Cold Clean Water every day. Remove any uneaten food and waste after 12 hours so that your Water Dragon will not eat food that is contaminated with bacteria. During this time feed your Water Dragon (axolotl) frozen bloodworms until the skin has peeled off / shed off is completely.

What do I do when a Water Dragon (axolotl) gets one of its legs bitten off?
The first thing you need to know about Water Dragons (axolotl) is that if a Water Dragon is cannibalistic; this is learned and remembered behavior and that Water Dragon will be cannibalistic for the rest of its life. (This is why at Buy Axolotls.com we separate all our Water Dragons at birth so that they never learn this cannibalistic behavior) You need to remove the cannibalistic Water Dragon from your tank so that it will not have contact with any other Water Dragons. Otherwise more Water Dragons will be damaged by the cannibalistic one.

It will take your Water Dragon (axolotl) and least 10 weeks to grow back the missing leg. Put your injured Water Dragon axolotl in a sick tank. A good size for a sick is 2 1/2 gallon tank. At Buy-Axolotls.com we prefer to use 2 1/2 gallon tanks because they are easy to move around. You will need to do at least three 100% water changes every day and use a water conditioner/stress coat after each water change. By using the water conditioner/stress coat will help rebuild your Water Dragons slime coat over the wounded area and help prevent infections. You should also add a teaspoon of API Aquarium Salt in the tank to keep the bacteria level low and will help as an antifungal solution in the sick tank. 

Feed your Water Dragon (axolotl) three times per week preferably live food, if you cannot find a live food and then feed frozen blood worms.  Any uneaten food needs to be removed after 24 hours. You can remove the uneaten food with a net or siphon it out by using a 1/4 inch tubing about 4 ft long that you can buy at Home Depot or any other home center. You do not need a filter in your sick tank because you will be changing water (3) three times a week.

My Water Dragon (axolotl) has been floating upside down what should I do?
You may have a medical problem called Swim Bladder infection. Swim Bladder is bacterial infections caused by either you have a poor water quality or the water temperature in your tank is too high. At Buy-Axolotls.com we recommend the following treatment. First put you Water Dragon in a Sick Tank. Buy a 2 ½ gallon tank at a local tropical fish store. At Buy-Axolotls.com we like to use the 2 ½ gallon tank because the tank are easier to move around.

The standard dose one tablespoon of API Aquarium Salt. Change the water every two days and add a tablespoon of salt for each water change.

Or a medication treatment for Swim Bladder is Kanaplex; you can only buy this on the internet. The next best medicine is to buy Jungle Fungus Eliminator or Clear, these can be purchased at your local Petsmart, PetCo or your tropical fish store. I do not recommend that you use Maracyn 1 and 2 because of the over use and many infections do not respond to this medicine. You need to treat daily for 3 days and do 100% water change each day. If necessary retreat for another 3 days. Feed only live food like Rosy minnows, earthworms or California Blackworms during this time. 

My Water Dragon (axolotl) has Bloat; what should I do?
The first sign of 'bloat' is loss of appetite which is then followed by swelling of the abdomen. There seems to be no rationale explanation for the cause of bloat. Once a Water Dragon becomes afflicted it is often fatal. The Water Dragon is not eating must be treated immediately or it will become incurable and die. It is not certain what this disease is, it is generally believed to be caused by a protozoal parasite complicated by bacterial infection. The most common cause of this disease is stress and the first sign if illness is not eating. Stress can be caused by such things as poor water quality, insufficient diet, over feeding, and a lack of hiding places and being cannibalized by its tank mates. Other causes, that are easily remedied, are an improper diet. Prevention is of utmost importance, and it is possibly to cure a Water Dragon if treated right away. Once you notice that your Water Dragon has bloat, you should remove it and begin treatment immediately. Use one table spoon of Epsom salt/API Aquarium Salt treatment. Put your Water Dragon in a 2 ½ gallon tank you can buy at a local tropical fish store. Do not use a filter. Cold water only, put the water level 1 inch higher than the size of the Water Dragon. DO NOT FEED ANYTHING during this process. The standard dose one tablespoon of Epsom salt/API Aquarium Salt. Change the water every day and add salt for each water change. Another effective treatment for Bloat is Metronidazole (Emtryl or Flagyl), and Clout. The treatment should be after you do a 100% water change to improve water quality. Change 100% water change daily. The 100% water change is very important because it provides the best water condition possible. Leave the chlorine in the water, Water Dragons have lungs like we do and are air breathers, unlike fish that has gills and would breathe the chlorine in the water. The chlorine will turn into a gas and be out of the tank within 24 hrs. By leaving the chlorine in your water it will kill any harmful bacteria and fungus that may be on the Water Dragons or in the tank.

Chytrid (Chytridiomycosis) Fungus Cure
First put your Axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) in a 2 ½ gallon tank during treatment. Axolotls can be treated by putting 0.01% of itraconazole (Generic Sporanox) put directly in to their tank water for a 30 min bath per day for 5 days. Do not use any filters or any activated charcoal filters during these treatments. This treatment and quarantine procedures is successful cure for the Chytrid (Chytridiomycosis) disease.

My Water Dragon (axolotl) has a Fungus; what should I do?
The cause of this Fungus is due to poor water quality and or the water temperature is too high. Water Dragons are prone to bacterial and fungus infections.  The standard treatment should be to use Mercurochrome® at the first sign of infection. You can buy this at your local drug store or pharmacy. This is a topical antiseptic, you will need to take you Water Dragon out of the water and apply to infected area. First put your Water Dragon in a Sick Tank. You can buy a 2 ½ gallon tank you can buy at a local tropical fish store. Do not filter the water. Change the water every 3 days and add one teaspoon of Mercurochrome® Medicine to the water every 3 days.

Is a forum a good place to find information regarding the care and feeding of Water Dragons (axolotls)?
A forum is the worst places to find reliable information regarding the care and feeding of Water Dragons (axolotls). When you read these posting on a forum you will quickly see that there are 20 different people with 20 different answers and all of them believe that they are correct. If you want reliable information regarding the care and feeding of Water Dragons then you need to go to a website that specializes in only Water Dragons.

I found Websites that have conflicting information regarding the care and feeding of Water Dragon (Axolotls), what should I do?
There are literally hundreds of Self-Appointed Armchair Water Dragon (Axolotl) Experts out there on the Internet and some these guys even have impressive sounding names like PhD. If you put 100 of these so-called Axolotl experts in one room you would have 100 different opinions. A vast majority of these internet posting are only from book knowledge or from very limited personal experience breeding axolotls. So a good question to ask these so-called Axolotl experts: Are you currently breeding Axolotls? If so; how long?

More importantly, you need to understand what is motivating the writer to make these postings.  Are these postings emotional? Or are they trying to scare you? Or do they try to make you think that you need a PhD to raise an Axolotl? Could the real purpose be that they want you to join a club or send a donation? If so, the information they are posting is probably questionable at best. 

At Buy-Axolotls.com we have over eight years of continuous practical experience in care and feeding of Water Dragons (Axolotls). The information we provide on our website is time-tested, hands-on practical experience from working with our Water Dragons. We continue to take a practical common sense approach in the care and feeding of our Water Dragons and hope that you will too.
