Mexican Walking Fish Melbourne

Mexican Walking Fish, also known as an Axolotl, is an excellent pet for kids because they are simple to look after. We have stores located in Hoppers Crossing, Norlane and Ferntree Gully.

Firstly they come in 5 colours. A mottled black/green is the wild type colour, whilst black, gold, white, and albino are common.

Secondly, the maintenance required is a basic 50% water change every week to keep the water nice and fresh, which can extend to 2-3 week intervals with a more efficient filter. Given the correct water conditions, diet, and care, the Mexican Walking Fish can live up to 15 years.

To get up close and personal with these weird animals, visit one of our three stores in Hoppers Crossing, Norlane or Ferntree Gully.

Mexican Walking Fish Care

To keep a Mexican Walking Fish healthy, we recommend that chlorine neutraliser is used to remove the chlorine from your tap water as chlorine can be harmful as it breaks down their protective slime coating.

Also, add some Blue Water Conditioning Salt to the water, ensuring the health of your Mexican Walking Fish. It is not recommended to have aquarium gravel on the bottom of your Walking fish Aquarium as these can be swallowed while they eat. At Waterlife Aquarium, we have a great range of frozen diets and pellet diets perfectly suited to keep your new pet Mexican Walking Fish in perfect condition.

Although very calm if left alone, Mexican Walking Fish can be aggressive towards each other if agitated, underfed, or overcrowded. Other tank inhabitants, such as goldfish, small crustaceans, and young axolotls, are all potential food should they wander too close. Mexican Walking Fish will snap out at anything within reach, and fish may also nip at the axolotl’s gills, so it is recommended not to keep other small animals in the tank.
