The reason why the Axolotl is Extinct was a man made problem; Water Pollution (Human Waste) found in the Water. Making the water safe and clean could have been done but the Mexican Government chose to do nothing to save the Axolotl For more information Click Here

How do I know that information on this website is correct?
We at Buy-Axolotls.com have been breeding Water Dragons since 2001 and that is the only animal that we breed. The information that we state on this website is what we do and have been doing since 2001. We have tested everything that we recommend to you on this website. For all you Nay Sayers, do the test yourself. You will see I am right.
If you do water changes the 1 per week you will be removing 90% of the Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate in your aquarium. If you do not do weekly water changes then the levels of Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate in your aquarium will reach levels that will kill your Water Dragon. So it very important that you do water changes 1 per week. Doing water changes each week will greatly extend the life of your Water Dragons.

Feeding Axolotl Pellets – Food
Feeding Juveniles Axolotl pellets Food
When feeding Juveniles Water Dragon (axolotl) pellets you should start feeding 1 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.
How often do you feed Adult Water Dragons 6 inches and over?
Feed your adults Water Dragons that are 6 inches and over every day. Feed 2-3 Axolotl pellet to for one adult Water Dragon. Also vary their diet, to include live food Live Red Wiggles 1 per week and or frozen food. Feeding your adults Water Dragons every day will make sure that the adults are well nourish.
Every day you need to remove all the uneaten food and waste. The best way to do that is to buy a siphon hose at Home Depot in their plumbing department. The manufacture is Watts the model number is 42141425 description; Polyethylene Tubing 3/8″ x 1/4” x 25 ft long. The cost is about $6.00 dollars. Cut it to 6 feet long. This is a great tool to take out any uneaten food and waste from your aquarium into a new 5 gallon bucket. It is better to feed too little than too much. Too much food will cause health problems.
Feeding Frozen Blood Worms
How do I feed Frozen Blood Worms?
The first thing you need to know is what kind of Frozen Blood Worms you need to buy. Do not buy Frozen Blood Worms are in individual packets because these Frozen Blood Worms are 50% water and 50% Frozen Blood Worms. Instead buy the half pound package of Frozen Blood Worms or the full pound package of Frozen Blood Worms; you will get more Frozen Blood Worms and less water. You buy Frozen Blood Worms at any PetSmart, Petco and your local tropical fish store.
I feed Frozen Blood Worms to Water Dragons that are less than 6 inches long. After they are 6 inches long then you can feed them Water Dragon pellets.
Here is the process that I use; first I break off some Frozen Blood Worms from the package. You can use an adjustable wrench to break off pieces of frozen blood worms from the package. Adjust the wrench to the thickness of frozen blood worms package and then bend to break off some blood worms. If you don’t have an adjustable wrench you can use a pliers.
Put the frozen blood worms in a cup with water to let them defrost. After they have defrosted I use the tweezers to gather a bunch of Blood Worms and then I put the Blood Worms in front of your Water Dragons mouth and after Water Dragon has bitten into the bunch of Blood Worms, let go of the tweezers and let him eat. Doing it this way, you will have very little clean up of food and less of a chance of having the aquarium water go bad.
Food and Waste Siphon Hose
Every day you need to remove all the uneaten food and waste. The best way to do that is to buy a siphon hose at Home Depot in their plumbing department. The manufacture is Watts the model number is 42141425 description; Polyethylene Tubing 3/8″ x1/4” x 25 ft long. The cost is about $6.00 dollars. Cut it to 6 feet long. This is a great tool to take out any uneaten food and waste from your aquarium into a new 5 gallon bucket. It is better to feed too little than too much. Too much food will cause health problems.
How do I know if I am feeding the right amount of Frozen Blood Worms?
For a Juvenile Axolotl 3 to 5 inches long, count the number of Frozen Blood Worms the Axolotl will eat. Example if the number is qty 15 blood worms then feed a little more Qty 20 Frozen Blood Worms that day. The Qty Frozen Blood Worms will increase as the Water Dragon gets bigger. Only feed your Axolotl three times per week. It is better to under feed than over feed. Over feeding will cause health problems.
Feeding Live Feeder Guppies
You can buy Feeder Guppies at Petsmart or Petco and or a Tropical Fish Store. Before you feed Feeder Guppies you need to drain all the water from the bag because it may bacteria and fungus in the water.
You should put the Feeder Guppies is a separate tank with water that has been aged for one day to let chlorine out.
The best way to feed Feeder Guppies is to lower the water level so that your Axolotl will have easy access to them. Depending on the size Water Dragons they will eat 1-2 to Feeder Guppies per week. It is important that the Feeder Guppies are smaller than your Water Dragon’s mouth. Also make sure that you buy healthy Feeder Guppies that are not sick. If a Feeder Guppies is sick, take it out so that it cannot be eaten. Feeder Guppies are a great food source for an Adult Water Dragon (Axolotl)
Feeding Red Wiggler and Earth Worms
Live Red Wiggles (you can buy them at Walmart in the Fishing section) feed one worm every 2 weeks.
When feeding worms like Red Wiggler Worms or Night crawlers Worms, you may need to chop them up into bite size portions.
Every day remove all uneaten food and waste to prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria in your tank. It is better to feed too little than too much. Too much food will cause health problems.

How do I feed Live Black Worms?
When you buy Live Black Worms you will also get Live Leeches. Leeches are parasite that are Not Easy to Spot with the naked eye. Leeches are worms that often appear hearth shaped as they curlers themselves toward the body. Leeches can kill a Water Dragon. Buy-Axolotls does not recommend that you feeding Live Black Worms.
When you get the Black Worms rinse the worms with Cold Clean tap water. You will have to rinse them several times until the water is clear. You must rinse the Black Worms every day or they will die. Put the Black Worms in the refrigerator in a plastic shoe box and lid that you can buy at the dollar store. The lid will stop any Black Worms from climbing out. A plastic shoe box can hold 1 lb of Black Worms. The height of the Black Worms in the shoe box should be only ½ inch high. Don’t drown them, the water level should be NO higher than the top of the worms. Black Worms breath the air and will suffocate if the water is too deep. Do not feed dead Black Worms to your Water Dragons
At Buy-Axolotls we do not recommend feeding Black Worms because leeches can kill your Water Dragon.
Is it okay to feed my Water Dragon – Axolotl worms from my garden?
I would not recommend it because the worms from your garden may contain parasites, and if eaten by your Water Dragon it will die. Also worms from your garden may have chemicals like:pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers which will if eaten also endanger the life of your Water Dragon. If you want to feed worms then buy them from Walmart or on the internet.
How do get my Water Dragon – Axolotl to eat pellets?
First you can only feed your Water Dragon pellets when reach 6 inches long, than make sure that the pellets are 1/4 inch size and the pellets has to be smaller than you Water Dragon month. Stop feeding Blood Worms and Start feeding Axolotl Pellets. The process takes about 2 weeks to change from frozen Blood Worms to Axolotl pellets. You need to be patient because once your axolotl becomes hungry he will eat the pellets and then realize it is food.
How do I straighten out my siphon hose?
It is very easy to do. Grab two feet of hose and reverse bend the to a U shape. Do this until the hose shape is what you want.
What is the best way to feed my Water Dragon – Axolotl while on vacation?
I would recommend that you buy Rosy Minnows or use Red Wiggler Worms that you can at Walmart. When using Red Wiggler Worms you do not need to lower the water level; just put them in your tank. When using feeder fish that you can buy Petsmart and Petco which sells for about 15 cents each. You will need to lower the tank water to be about 1 inch above your axolotl’s head so that they will be able to reach the feeder fish. Also it is important that the feeder fish are smaller than your Water Dragon’s mouth.
Can I feed Beefheart to my Water Dragon – Axolotl?
I do not recommend it because it not a natural food. It is better to feed live Red Worms that you can buy at Walmart in the fishing department.
