Hi! I bought a tank made by Greg and it was the best one I ever had. Beautiful construction, thick 6mm glass and reinforced on the bottom. He sells them on Trade Me if your interested. Mel

Hi! Yes, thats the reason I joined this site because its really nice to have access to knowledgeable people in NZ who know what they're talking about. I'm no expert but sometimes when I go to pet shops I get frustrated because they often don't know what they're talking about! Mel

Hi! Yes thats my axolotl Roxy an the avatar, shes about 2 or 3 years old, 25cms long and a real character! Thanks for the offer of contacts for the golden axolotl, I don't actually have room for one yet though I keep an eye out for them on Trade Me and I've seen a couple. What would you say is a resonable price for one these days? I think the Rebecca you're talking about is the one I bought my newts off. When you say a true albino axolotl what do you mean? My ones leucistic, if she had pink eyes would that make her albino or do they have to have no brown markings on them? Mel

Thanks

Great advice, glad to be here

Yea I know. Everytime I visit Jansens I want a new tank or a new animal. I think I'm going to have to wait till I get my own house. Luckily my partner shares my interest in aquriums and he says we can convert our future garage/basement to hold aquariums/terrariums - I'm going to hold him to that! Mel

Hi! I'm new to the forums. I love aquatic animals and currently have three aquariums containing an axolotl, two firebelly newts and a goldfish + snail. I would like to have more but not enough space. Would really like to own a golden axolotl one day and maybe an arowana. Have found this site really interesting especially getting a kiwi aspect on the care of some animals, can be hard to apply foreign guides to pet care in this country! Looking forward to meeting others with similar interests especially other newt and axolotl owners! Mel
