    Default Nervous first time aqua parent to be

    Only 2 weeks after acquiring my newest Axolotl's I'm now the proud parent (am I really the parent?) of approx. 400 Axolotl eggs

    Attempting to separate them from the decorations, slate tile, fake plants was hell and a half with the gooey placenta like stuffs Now they're safe from the other Axy's in their own 10 gallon nano... for the next week and a half when they should hatch!!!

    Crossing my fingers and hoping I don't accidentally kill too many and that Axolotl's will be more readily available in the LM soon!

    found the eggs confusing for a sec and then it dawned on me.. they should be like frogs as they are amphibians.. gonna be neat being able to watch them develop inside the egg

    It's day 13 and they're squirming around in their egg sacs! Hopefully I'll see some hatching out tomorrow!
