Meet Custard, the glowing little golden nugget with tiny dinosaur energy and a full-time commitment to snack investigations.
Custard is a beautiful Hypo Golden Albino Axolotl with soft golden colouring and an incredible cranial glow under blue and black light. The unique Axanthic genetics give Custard a rare and eye-catching appearance that stands out beautifully in freshwater axolotl aquariums and display tanks.
At approximately 14cm in length, Custard is still growing and already overflowing with personality. Currently unsexed but leaning toward female, Custard spends most of the day gently floating through the tank, inspecting plants with great seriousness, and reacting to food with the enthusiasm of someone who has not eaten in several business days.
Under blue or black light, the glowing cranial feature adds an extra layer of visual appeal highly sought after by axolotl enthusiasts and collectors. Custard is the perfect mix of adorable, rare, and slightly chaotic.

Axolotl Sales & Care Information
All of our axolotls are photographed individually, so the little lotl you see in the listing is the exact one you’ll receive. Each one is unique, even if some may look similar.
We take photos in natural lighting to show their colours as accurately as possible. Colours can still vary slightly depending on lighting and screens. We mainly use our phones for photography, but if you’d like extra photos or videos, we’re always happy to send more.
Every axolotl comes with transition feed and detailed care information sheets to help them settle in comfortably.
We also offer lifetime support. Whether you’re brand new to axolotls or have kept them for years, we’re here to help you give your lotl the best life possible.
Before finalising a sale, we’ll ask a few questions about your setup. We won’t sell an axolotl if your tank is uncycled or incorrectly cycled. This is purely for the safety of the animal, as an uncycled tank can:
Kill an axolotl within a few days, or
Cause slow organ failure over 3–12 months.
It’s also important to use axolotl‑safe products. Most fish products aren’t suitable. If axolotl‑specific items aren’t available in your area, turtle products are usually the next safest option.
We’re more than happy to help you cycle your tank, choose safe products, and answer any questions you may have — just reach out anytime.
If you fall in love with a particular axolotl but your tank isn’t quite ready, you’re welcome to purchase and reserve that lotl. We can hold them for you until your setup is safe. Holding fee: $5.00 per week, invoiced and paid before dispatch.
