Axolotls are unique for their ability to regenerate lost body parts, including limbs, spinal cord, heart, and even parts of their brain. This remarkable regenerative capability is largely due to their special cells called blastemal cells, which can transform into various types of tissues. Additionally, axolotls retain their larval features throughout their life, a condition known as neoteny, which is uncommon in amphibians. This combination of regeneration and neoteny sets axolotls apart from other species.

Do axolotls migrate?

It depends. Axolotls can be kept with other axolotls AS ADULTS, and in fact prefer it due to the fact they are very social. When they are not adults, however, they will kill each other when kwpt with each other. There is a simple rule of thumb for axolotls: since they are at the top of their natural food chain, If something moves and is smaller than its head, you can bet an axolotl can and will eat it. Also note that some fish (especially cichlids) may nibble on the axolotls gills if kept with them and hurt them alot, so keep kind fish like mollies and guppies with them.

Can axolotol fish live in the same tank as other fish?

Oh, dude, it's "axolotl," not "axolotol fish." And no, they shouldn't live with other fish because they might mistake them for a snack. Axolotls are like that one friend who always eats your leftovers without asking - not great tank mates. So, keep them solo or with their own kind for a drama-free aquatic life.
