- In today's video, I set up a new aquarium for my NEW wild caught axolotl! I recently was told by a subscriber that he caught an axolotl in the Florida everglades, so I set out with a net in hopes of getting one, I ended up catching a rare orange crawfish, and an axolotl!! Leave a comment with a name for our new pet!

Definitely 😁
Definitely!!! And call this one Toothless ...because he does look like that dragon from How to train your dragon 😂
Ok
BTW he didn’t dig that in the sand ur filter did that to the sand.

Axolotls are practically extinct in the wild, they only live in two lakes, definitely not Florida! I’m guessing that might be a tiger salamander larvae, they look super similar. Make sure there is someplace for the larvae to get out of the water to morph.
Its a hellbender
They only live in lake xochimilico (idk if spelled right) in Mexico City
Also there are only between 50-1,000 in the wild if they are intact axolotls then someone released them and that is illegal in Florida cause they can change the eco system
@@Saturn_got_springlocked hellbenders are not that rare..though are endangered due to environmental loss. Used to catch them in Missouri in the 80s. They have a very large range...just running short of clean, flowing water.
@@SMDoktorPepper no that’s not a hellbender
I think the dark colored or native types are called mud puppies. When I was younger I got them at bait shops and also found a couple in creeks around SE Texas. They do turn into the coolest black and yellow spotted salamanders. Watch out if you put them with crawfish even though the coexist in the wild. The crawfish tend to pester them in an aquarium. So very cool! Enjoy!
Princess peach is the best name. I hope you pick peaches.❤
Your butt
The axolotl is native only to Lake Xochimilco in the Valley of Mexico, as well as the canals and waterways of Mexico City.we concentrate on the early history of the axolotl as a laboratory animal to celebrate that the first living axolotls arrived in Paris in 1864, 159 years ago.
This is long
That’s not actually true u can also find native axolotls in lake lerma in Mexico too but their population is much smaller there than of lake xochimilco
@@UnfunnyDaffenDales98775 That's not actually true, I assume you are referring to the Lake Lerma salamander. They do look very similar to axolotls and are very rarely found in the Lerma River. Axolotl's are native only to Lake Xochimilco
Bros been doing some research
not watched the video but imma guess that the axolotl is a tiger salamander larva. they will turn into salamanders but can be kept as pets in a terrarium once they morph. give it a platform to get out of the water when it decides to morph. like i said i have not finished watching the video so maybe you already know this
Yeah its way to hot in florida for axies
I thought they stay in their larva form and never evolve, I could be incorrect tho
@@robsaquatics8788 that's Axolotls, but these are tiger salamander nymphs they do eventually morph into adults
@@robsaquatics8788 from what I know I think that fully neotenic tiger salamanders are a thing, often a result of environmental conditions but they are not that common
ye Axolotl lives in Mexico in few lakes and its protected spieces (so if somebody try to catch it, probably would end in jail) D:
This is interesting. That definitely looks like an Ambystoma larva (genus that includes tiger salamanders, Axolotls, and other large salamander species). Tiger salamanders are native and would seem more likely, but, from what I can see online, they don't occur that far south. The southernmost record on Inaturalist is between Gainesville and Tampa. It's too big to be a marbled salamander, and spotted salamanders don't occur in Florida at all. So either tiger salamanders have expanded or there's actually an introduced axolotl population. Axolotls are widespread enough in both the pet trade and in scientific research that introduction to the wild is plausible. However, all online sources say that they cannot tolerate water temperatures above 75 degrees for prolonged periods, and I would certainly think the water in the glades would get warmer than that in the summer. I'd be really interested to see if it's a tiger or truly an axolotl.
Yes I have 3 Axolotls 2 are sub 1.5 years old 1 is 9 years old and they are not axolotls they only live in Mexico City rivers that are highly polluted and they can not survive in any different areas no matter what attempts where tried they all lead to unfortunate failures so unless someone just released an Axolotl that day then that was 100% not an axolotl
Or it was a staged video. But if it’s on the internet it must be true right? 😂
The ones in pet trade are hybrids ax/tiger salamanders these in vid look like tiger salamanders to me
@@kerwinhayes2457 ye i thought axolotls only came from 1 lake in Mexico
Tiger salamander larvae are sold as bass bait under the name "waterdogs". Easy to imagine someone releasing leftover live bait at the end of a trip and establishing a breeding population.
Axolotls are so cute 🥰
I love how excited you get you're like Hiccup from How to train Your Dragon but with fish. My guess if it is an axolotl it was probably a pet that someone didn't want anymore and released into the wild, which is how you got all those pythons down there.
The divot in the sand is from the filter outflow, not the salamander digging. As mentioned in lots of comments, not an axolotl, probably a tiger salamander larva. Axolotls are salamanders, which are amphibians, and this is a similar relative of the axolotl, but will morph into a land dwelling adult form eventually.
Could be a petamorph with how big it is
he is clueless
@@ragey666 exactly
@@Saturn_got_springlocked Hope he gives the guy some land. if he is going to mature to a land dweller I would hate to see it drown
it wouldn't drown during metamorphosis and neotenic tigers usually only occur at high altitude cold lakes, so it will eventually want to morph. it could still get bigger in the aquatic stage, depends on water conditions. either way, shouldn't be kept long term in an aquarium
Call him Everglade! Keep on following your dreams and enjoy your life your doing a great job with these videos!! Love my Florida!!
Princess peach❤
btw i suggest not getting an axolotl. they need cold temperatures like under 70 degrees which will be difficult to maintain in florida
Hey man love your videos!!! Just wanted to mention that it’s unfortunately not an axolotl and most likely a juvenile tiger salamander! They do also make wonderful pets but will eventually leave the water and live on land, there’s tons of information online on how to keep them though so if you still want to keep it!! Salamanders are super cool little amphibians and making tanks for them is super fun since you want a water feature in their tank with them! Just remember to use calcium powder on your insects when feeding the little guy so his bones can stay nice and healthy!!!
👍
replying because this comment is rlly helpful and it needs to be seen
How do you know that much?!? I barely know my sisters birthday’s
It’s not a tiger salamander. You could possibly harm this animal. Please look closely for the differences in these animals. Because they look nothing alike.
It is a tiger salamander, just in a larval form. Do your homework.smh
Bobby, I used to keep Axolotls and they are amazing. They can grow new legs and feet and gills if they get bitten off. I think your other friends here are probably right though that this is a Tiger Salamander larva but I don't see why real Axolotls don't get released from captivity and could breed in the wild away from their natural range where they are nearly extinct. This happens with lots of tropical fish species, and also with reptiles and amphibians. As for a name for him, why not Axl? It's good enough for Axl Rose and is the most obvious name!
Yeah I caught a 2 blue tounge skins in California but they only live in Australia so they are probably escaped pets that bred
That can breve outside of water
That can breve outside of water
Just wanted to say i love your videos and to keep on doing what you love!
Just a heads up~ you want to be careful with that tank man. It's placed on two stools. So without it being on a flat surface, that is going to cause stress on the tank which could cause it to crack.
Make sure water temp is between 60-64° F and PH of 7.4-7.6 .... Great channel love you guys.... I'M actually a FL native who has relocated and wish I could have joined you on this trip!
My grandma and grandpa used to have a axolotl,poisonous snake,a turtle,a little pond filled with crabs,and river where we could fish on a Dock ❤
Lucky
Lucky but I don’t like the poisonous snake I mean I have snake to
Cool but, snakes are not poisonous they are venomous.
@@stephaniesuthers5635 the difference of poison and venom is poison is something you consume but venom is made from a sting or bite
Sweet pie❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Axolotls also develop lungs. Although their main method of breathing is through their gills, they occasionally use their lungs to breathe in air from the water's surface. Because they live in water their whole lives, they always have a tail and webbed feet for swimming.
💀I copy pasted this form goolge
Cool video. Congratulations to you both. Amazing catch guys. God bless you both and your families......🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
Please be aware these will morph to wanting out of water, whatever enclosure you need it to have access to both under and over water :)
yeasdasfdaewf
I know that your saying this because it’s not a Axolotl, but you should just mention that, because (unless you use a special thingy majig), axolotls stay in the water.
@@AveragePixolotlFan yes axolotls stay in water, this is not an axolotl
Ha no need. The thing will just crawl out of the tank when it's ready.
If it was an Axolotl it would only morph if introduced to iodime
Love your videos I wish I could have a fish😊
Axolotls are native to mexico and they are endangered and an exotic species so they must have been dumped in that pond. They are usually very relaxed and non-agressive amphibians but if startled they can whip their tail and swim away extremely fast. I have four axolotls and they all get on perfectly, although most axolotls prefrere to be alone. They like cold water temperatures and high pH compared to other fish. They will always try to hide because their eyes are very sensitive to bright light, so expect to find them in the shade amongst vegetation. And yes, although they spend most their time in water they do need to breathe air aswell. They can survive in air for about 30 minutes. The axolotl you found was actually quite young. They are baby salamanders actually, thats why they can breathe underwater. But what you found appears not be an axolotl, more a tiger salamander larva.
Habitat: Freshwater lakes & ponds
Lifespan: 10 - 15 Years
Size: 15 - 45 cm (6 - 18 inches)
also
Even though breathing through their lungs is the last source of breathing for an axolotl, it is the only way they can actually breathe air
Awesome video as always dude, but keep in mind the temperature of the water should stay between 61 and 64 degrees, other wise it will stress it out.
I love watching your videos
Crawfish color is determined by several factors, including diet, age, maturity, and water temperature. In general, juvenile crawfish are green pumpkin colored, while mature crawfish tend to be black or dark brown during the winter months, and turn orange and red during the summer months.
His happiness is so contagious
Even if this is not an axalotl, it is still an amazingly cool find! You are definitely the best at catching exotics in Florida!
axolotl can change to salamander happens to some not all but it does happen
@@Prepperfather It is rare though
Ok so for some dumb reason I thought you spelled axolotl exotics maybe because it's 11pm🤔😂
@@rjkmahornets5786 🤣😂
@@OMG_FL sure is
11:58 so happy for u
florida has everything
keep up the good work
BFP
Except Axoltls...which is a good thing considering despite their popularity in the aquaria industry are critically endangered in the wild.
This video was extremely entertaining! I’ve been watching your content quite a bit recently and I’ve really enjoyed it! 👍
I think you should name it Evi if it’s a female or Evan if it’s a male; they’re meant to be short for Everglades 😁
I don't think that's an axolotl... florida is a hot place, and axolotl need cold water, so if he was one he would have died, i think that's some kind of salamander larvae, and i wouldn't recommend keeping him cause for what i read salamander are really hard to care for, and if he was an axolotl you would need documents
You need to come to Indiana and teach my son he loves this
I don’t know a lot about axolotl‘s but adding some plants would be a good idea 😃
Comment a name for our new WILD axolotl🙌🔥
Axal
Axe
Bob
Name it NOT AN AXOLTL
call the salamander impostor
I think he's probably a salamander, but with the way he kept getting comfortable on your hands and with how funny it is to give an aquatic creature a cat name, I suggest you name him cuddles. Absolutely hilarious.
Edit: maybe provide him an area in the tank where he can walk out of the water if he wants to, lower the water and put a big rock in or some wood he can crawl on.
yeah because it is a salmander :l
ITS A AXLOTL!!!
@@ljs_fishing_things45 it will evolve is salamander soon enough
@@ljs_fishing_things45 axolotls are basically extinct in the wild and only live in 2 rivers if they are wild
Axolotls are sensitive to light,so adding caves is a good choice.Digging is how they hunt for food.The crawfish might be something like an albino orange.
Are you planning on keeping him even though he’s not an axolotl?
Hope he does and makes a cool area for him near one of the ponds
Yea
They are called "water dogs" in the southwest part of the country and we have tons of them in ponds and lakes here. The are native to this area and are NOT endangered. They net them for live bate fishing in the lakes and rivers of the southwest. So they are not rear or special.
Then those are not Axolotls they are salamander larve axolotls are only found in mexico and are basically extinct
@@spartan-gaming618 All I know is as long as I have lived in the Southwest part of this country (Arizona and New Mexico) I've been around people who catch them as bait for fishing. The common name that everyone calls them is "Water Dogs". I worked with a Lagona Indian man who caught them in ponds and lakes around the Gallup, NM area and sold them for fishing bait.
@@dolrr54 yeah i get that but the axolotls are basically extinct in the wild so yeah just saying but anyway have a good day or night depending on where you live
Florida really has everything
I wish we had that in South Africa 🇿🇦
Hay bro I wish we had those in our rivers. I swear if I go to the Vaalrivier I only catch small shrimp, carp, mosquito fish and catfish😂
It's okay. Neither does Florida. That's not an Axolotls.
The river in my country is full of garbage a lost cause
hmmm u should name the first axalotle u catched moonlight bc i has colour like a moon light🐈⬛🖤⚫🏴☠
Always a great day when bass fishing production uploads

Brandon just being brutalized by that fishing pole😂😂😂😂😂
Some tips: DO NOT CATCH IT IN THE WILD. Do not touch it with ur hands for to long. Give it a BIG tank so not the small tank it has now
They are weak swimmers big tanks aren’t good
No one read your comment except me and big cliff LVN
Neme she lis
Osum
I love axolotls but I like the pink ones more❤
Name him joy because you were happy when you were catching him
I do love your enthusiasm and joy you show for the animals. I love koi, turtles etc and would be right next to you saving or catching and I am going to be a Gma! Old people love your videos too! Lol I do believe you have a Mole salamander, some can stay in that form so may do exceptionally well in the tank. Could probably put in the koi pond too, maybe see if you can treat safely for parasites before moving. Or keep where he is. They do breed by digging so maybe a pregnant female? Hard to tell. Get snails and blood worms etc for your guy/gal. Dried Shrimp, crickets etc as well.
Just came across your channel and it reminds me of my brother and I having fun with a net and a bucket when we were kids...from Jersey to Florida, saltwater and freshwater. KEEP ROCKIN' ... im waiting to see if the saltwater bug will bite you. It's an addiction! I live in boring Iowa nowadays but grow and sell saltwater corals. Keep rocking the HUK and get that saltwater tank/pond cycling !
Axolotls that is awesome Lotto
I'm so jealous of your "koi" pond. It's beautiful! Hope you are doing well in your part of Fl.
your reactions are so wholesome, its so nice to see :D
I don’t think that’s an axolotl- unless you teleported to Mexico but either way it would be incredibly rare considering their low numbers in the wild it may be a tiger salamander larvae which explains the coppery look
You should maybe add a little more axolotols the ONE ALL ALONE must feel lonley plus a second sleeping area for the second one too!
Name the axolotl lily ❤🎉❤🎉

Bz🎉🎉😊😂😅❤❤🎉🎉
Captive axolotls are a genetic cross between the original axolotls and salamanders (often tiger salamanders) They are considered to be a potential and eventual invasive species. If these are axolotls and released captives they may be starting to take this area over. Definitely not a pure bred as they are not allowed in the aquarium trade
Very well could be a type of mudpuppy
Great video keep up the great work! All I know about axolotls is that they are extremely rare and come in a variety of colors!
These aren’t axolotls, they are salamander larvae, the only axolotls in the world are in one specific mexican Lake.
Axis dig when nervous
😊
Kept 2 in my aquarium for over 6 year! Would love to have a couple more for my aquariums but no such luck. They called them here in Alabama, sirens. Purchased them at 1” & grew over 2’. Very cool pet
Axolotls and sirens are 2 different things. Also there's no way axolotls can survive in the wild in Florida, they can only be found in a single lake in Mexico. So either he pretended to catch these or these aren't axolotls at all.
What a great man for dedicating his life to animals
I absolutely love axolotl’s, and I’m so glad you got one
🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Yay he got one😊😂❤
Yay
My 5 year old,Kast, watches your videos and has learned some cool things. He is a natural born herper ( may not be a real word but should be) He has caught a brown snake, tons of salamanders, all stages, and loves all things outdoors! We thought the baby salamanders he caught were axolotls but after some research we discovered they were Jefferson salamander larvae.
Glad ur supporting ur son's interests you seem like an amazing mother :)
I remember that video and I want to confirm that axolotl’s are cold water fish!! Hence, not an axolotl but actually a salamander as the Florida Everglades has tropical temperatures.
Salamanders aren't fish, Rich.
@@danm8004 apologies, I meant amphibian
Love your videos man! Wish we had wild fish/creatures like this in the UK! Good job bro
same, i did catch a newt thing but thats the coolest ive ever got
@@robsaquatics8788 same for me. tbf it was a pretty cool newt but nothing special
Once I saw an albino sunfish under a dock but the only cool fish I've ever seen in the wild.
Axolotls are so so cute when they are tiny 😍
yes the axolotl can breath air oh and can i get a shout out
Name the axolotl Axel,and maybe bury their food to encourage hunting skills.
it is a cutest thing i've ever seen❤❤
I feel like Axel suits him really well
I love axolotls they are so cute
Congrats
I love Axolotl so much
Hi Guys. I live in Florida. Just wondering, aren't you afraid of alligators?
Is there a certain time of year that they are more lethargic and less likely to strike.
🎉
This is for the Saba Manda, there are. 1000000 that’s how many they are.❤ they are so cute and I think you can name the summer Manda this name they are so cute and I think you can name the summer Manda this what you can Rose? And Lauren
no exception to other creatures, this aquatic animal’s lifeline is oxygen. This critter is blessed with 4 different ways to absorb oxygen in its body.
When axolotls dig holes in sand a soft patch of sand that they can find it means they're about to lay eggs
I have about 10 axolotls in my giant tank 5 of them are salmanders and about the same amount of giant catfish and 2 eels most of my axolotls are pink and blue for me its very common I have 6 baby turtle's but sadly the mother passed away last month 😢😢She was huge and was one of the biggest turtle's in the world but the babies are healthy and about 7 month's old they are absolutely beautiful very very bright colour's I also have 4 dogs and 1 cat name of cat is Sally she is a girl bright orange and white name of dog's are Oreo and cookie they are male's and Amber and Snowflake are female's Amber had 5 pups and Snowflake is still going to have pups
THANK YOU FOR READING THIS ❤❤❤
Hahah the way he said hoo get in the net get In the net
They are so cute 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
My son thinks you should name him “Axe” 😊😊
Baby girl 😮
that is
so cool

Axolotl’s were introduced on in Florida in the 16th century food source
I RELLY LIKE YOU I LOVE YOURE VIDS
yeah 🎉

So you were wondering about what they can breath, axolotls if i have it right they can breath air and breath in water! (Hope this helps butthey mostly need water) hope u see this!
Hey, Bob. axolotls are becoming extinct in the wild and they can become salamanders by experiencing stress such as being picked up and placed in a bucket. So if you want one of these it would be really cool to buy one that is already used to captivity. I was very sad about this video, but I believe you didn't know this information.
Schon zu lesen, dass ich nicht alleine so denke🙋♀️
Actual arrow supposed to be in air and water both the same air and water they're even posed to be there hideable cousin like the Hi coz and think things are going to hurt them onion really love people who like if you love I hope you enjoy your
You guys should name the axolotol Apocalypse
I love ur vids so much and you inspired me to get my own fish, and his name is bluey he’s a half moon
first one enigma axalotal
By the way you're my favorite youtube
Add a baby crawfish!
