Another question: do you know the origin of the name? I love linguistics, so I'm curious...

Also, any pictures???

Axolotl comes from the Aztec language.

I'm dying to get one of those. I just don't know how I'd keep the water cool enough in the summer. I don't always turn on the air conditioning. How do people keep the water cool?

They sell aquarium chillers. I haven't looked at getting any.
I'm in Chicago at the moment. Will only be able to keep these guys for one year, unless I learn how to properly ship these guys when I move in a year. Hopefully I can!!
I never let my house get above 74 lol and that's hot to me.
