Meet our stars

Buttercup 

Buttercup is a gold axolotl. DOB 09/23
She is now an adult, but we like this baby picture :-)She lives in our 300L female axolotl tank with Wildfire, Pixie dust, Rosie and Posie. 

Wildfire

Wildfire is a gold axolotl. DOB 24/07/24
We raised wildfire from 2 days old along with axolotls from 3 different clutches we got from Ash's axolotls. 

Pixie Dust

Wildfire is a dirty Lucy axolotl. DOB 24/07/24
We raised wildfire from 2 days old along with axolotls from 3 different clutches we got from Ash's axolotls. 

Cherry Shrimp

Our Cherry Shrimp, also known as Neocaridina heteropoda, started with 2 Blue Dreams and 2 Green Jade and have breed into hundreds. 
They mostly live with Spectrum in our 30L tank, but some are moved to other tanks to ensure the breeding lines stay strong.

Axel Rose

Toothless is a melanistic axolotl. DOB 10/22
As Toothless is over 18mo and still presenting as female, we are confident she is female.  
She lives in our 200L tank with Buttercup and Bubbles.

Rosie

Rosie is a copper Lucy axolotl. DOB 24/07/24
We raised wildfire from 2 days old along with axolotls from 3 different clutches we got from Ash's axolotls. 

Toothless

Toothless features in some of our photos and videos, but sadly passed at around 19mo. The vet confirmed that her being only fed beef, prior to her coming to us, made her bones week and led to too much bone damage to survive. 

Fin Diesel

Fin is a copper axolootl.
He is approx 3 years old and lives in our 200L male axolotl tank with Axel Rose and Batman.

Posie

Posie is a Albino Lucy axolotl. DOB 24/07/24
We raised wildfire from 2 days old along with axolotls from 3 different clutches we got from Ash's axolotls. 

Bubbles 

Bubble features in some of our photos and videos, but sadly passed at 7mo because of poor genetics due to related parents. 

Our 200L community tank has a range of peaceful fish that feature in various places.
