💧Why is maintaining the correct water temperature important for axolotls?

🔹 Supports normal metabolism and immune function. Temperatures above the recommended range can cause stress, suppress the immune system, and increase susceptibility to disease.

🔹 Prevents heat stress. Axolotls are cold-water amphibians; prolonged exposure to warm water may lead to lethargy, loss of appetite, and, in severe cases, death.

🔹 Maintains proper oxygen levels. Cooler water contains more dissolved oxygen, which is essential for healthy respiration and overall well-being.

Ideal water temperature for axolotls: 15–19°C.
