@saxolotl I have defiantly used myself and seen other use pool filter sand. As long as it is silica sand it should be ok.Â

Axolotl has white fungus on gills?
Hello, I’ve had my axie Wooper for 3 years now and just yesterday I spotted a strange small bit of white fungus on his right gill.

I prefer using sand as its fairly easy to clean and looks the best in my opinion.Â
If you prefer a bare bottom tank then yes for sure you can leave it bare.Â
