Upgraded Axolotl Tank - Littlefish

How did you make the divider?

Badly....they've broken through already.

I made the divider out of plastic mesh stuff that I had for the garden, and some airline suction thingies to attach the plastic mesh to the tank walls.

I have now taken the divider out and have sat watching the tank. Perhaps it is because none of the axolotls have ever been on their own, and they are similar ages/sizes, but they seem to be mixing ok. Still keeping the tank covered this evening, and will be watching them closely, and see how things go.

Perhaps the biggest test will be feeding them tomorrow. 

Yes, but that is usually when they are younger. Their eyesight isn't great, so they will snap at anything that they think is small enough to eat. They will go for limbs, tails and gills when younger.
Thankfully they can also regrow their missing bits, so it isn't quite as bad as it seems. Some of the other axolotl keepers had posted pictures of their pets regrowing bits after injury, which was amazing.
It is also a bad idea to mix axolotls that have more than an inch in size difference, because the larger one could eat the smaller one. This is why I've waited until they have all matured before I considered putting them in the same tank. Also so I could check on their sex, and luckily they are all male.
I'm still keeping a very close eye on them though. 

This looks absolutely awesome @Littlefish !

Congratulations.

 

Another lovely tank @Littlefish
You will need to go back to work for a rest!
What is the floating plant in the final image? Did it get turfed out by the lads or was it intentional and it can be kept as a floater?

Very impressive... you've done a grand job there.

They've all clubbed their pocket money together and asked me to get you a bunch of flowers as a thank you gift for their new home...

@ColinB thanks, that's a lovely thought. 

 

They look fantastic, simply wonderful!

This is wonderful - so glad they're interacting with and comfortable with their new tankmates too.
