Product overview
Tropical Axolotl Sticks are a sinking food for axolotls and other carnivorous aquatic amphibians. These animals need a meat-based diet high in protein and amino acids. Generic fish food can leave them short of nutrients and can cause digestion problems.
The sticks are made from fish, molluscs, and crustaceans so they supply digestible animal protein for growth and tissue repair. They sink quickly, which lets bottom-dwellers feed on the substrate without competing at the surface.
Key features
-
High-protein sinking sticks: Fish, molluscs, and crustaceans for a meat-based diet.
-
Colour: Astaxanthin and red pepper extract to support pigmentation in dark and light axolotl morphs.
-
Immunity: Includes beta-glucan to support natural defences.
-
Vitamins and minerals: Balanced vitamins (including A, D3, C, and E) and microelements for normal development.
-
Cleaner water: Sticks hold together in the water instead of crumbling straight away, which helps limit ammonia spikes and cloudiness.
Water and system compatibility

Water: Freshwater aquariums only. Not for marine or reef tanks.
-
Species: Axolotls, Iberian ribbed newts, African clawed frogs, and other strictly carnivorous aquatic amphibians.
