Hi guys im new to this forum.
I was considering starting a mud puppy tank but I have a few questions first. First of all I wanted to to have a lot of living plants in the tank so they could hide easily, kind of like an underwater forrest but I dont know what type of plants I should get and would I need special lighting for living plants? Also are mud puppies and axolotl the same thing... if not what are the differences? Another thing I was wondering is what temperature would be best for them to thrive? I also would like to know what fish would be compatible with them... I was thinking of putting some gouramis in there with them. Also would sand or gravel be better? I was thinking of making it about a 60gallon setup. Any other information or advice would be much appreciated. Im trying to do as much research as possible before I begin buying my supplies for this setup
