Meet Gizmo – Axanthic Copper Male Axolotl
Every aquarium needs a little character, and Gizmo has volunteered for the role.
Gizmo is a stunning Axanthic Copper Axolotl and a visually confirmed male, measuring approximately 19cm in length. With his rich copper colouring, curious personality, and unique Axanthic genetics, he's a standout addition to any freshwater axolotl aquarium.
One of Gizmo's most fascinating features is his cranial glow under UV or blue light. As an Axanthic morph, he displays an incredible fluorescent glow that transforms him from a handsome copper gentleman by day into an unforgettable glowing showpiece when the lights go down.
Gizmo loves exploring every inch of his aquarium, inspecting new decorations, and appearing at the front glass whenever he suspects food might be involved. He's also mastered the classic axolotl technique of looking permanently hungry, regardless of how recently he's eaten.

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.
Shipping Information
All live axolotls are shipped on Mondays (weather and public holidays permitting).
Shipping is $50 within Express Post zones 1–3. Addresses outside zones 1–3 may incur additional fees. We’ll let you know before shipping, and any extra charges will need to be paid before dispatch.
If you’re not available on the day of delivery and the parcel needs to be redelivered, a redelivery fee of $35.00 will apply.
