Keeping Axolotls

I brought this as a present for my brother who is at the very early stages of looking into the possibilities of keeping Axolotls. First impressions were good, you cannot help but love the Axolotl on the front cover.This book has given him a kick start into his research as it contains a lot information that is perfect for beginners like himself. It is full of practical and very useful advice. It as good a range of questions and answers. It is clearly laid out and it is easy to follow each section. Before I gave it to him I 'flipped' through it briefly and the photos are really nice and clear, perfectly showing off Axolotls naturally smiley faces!

I'd highly recommend this book to any owners, or anyone thinking of owning an axolotl (or maybe just a fan!)It has a lot of important information broken down into managable sections; it's clear, coherent and very informative earning my five star rating.Not only did I enjoy reading this, aided with some great photos, but also learnt a lot.

This book has some good information on axolotls. However there are some sections which are now out dated. For instance, the gravel substrate is not recommended in an axolotl tank as they may swallow it.

This is a really good book as an introduction to axolotls, but you need to buy it BEFORE you start spending out on a tank and kit! Pity the detail on how to tell girls and boys apart isn't more detailed (maybe with diagrams) and I would have appreciated a little more on different types of food (what would be suitable, what definately isn't etc).

Good to dip in and out to fund information. Gift for 11 year old grandson. To help care for Jeffrey.

Really good book, easy to follow and wonderful photographs too. Glad I read reviews before just buying a more recently published book.

Really helpful book
