Axolotl Tank Mate Information

Axolotls may eat Red Cherry Shrimp. They should not be expected to permanently coexist with an axolotl. Some shrimp may remain in the aquarium for extended periods when dense plants and small hiding areas are available, while others may quickly become food.

For the best chance of maintaining shrimp in the aquarium, provide moss, live plants, rocks, wood, and other cover that shrimp can access.
