Tonight weโ€™re raising a toast (with sparkling tank-safe water ๐Ÿ˜œ) to YOU โ€” our donors, adopters, and cheerleaders. Your kindness fuels our ability to rescue each new axolotl, and we wouldn't be here without you.

**PLEASE NOTE**: LLA will be closed starting this evening (Wednesday) at 6PM ET to give our volunteers some time to rest, recharge and get ready to usher in the new year. We will reopen on Friday, January 2nd at 9AM. For health-related emergencies, please contact the nearest exotic vet. Thank you for all of your continued support, and have a very happy New Year!!

Worms: the squiggly superheroes of axolotl nutrition! ๐Ÿฆธโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿชฑ Red wigglers, nightcrawlers, and earthworms may look silly, but theyโ€™re packed with protein and minerals that keep our little water dragons happy and healthy. Plus, raising your own worm farm is easier (and cuter!) than you think.

Christmas may be over, but this little Santa's helper is still looking for his forever home. Hopper came to us at just about 4", very thin and undernourished. Hopper's former family lived in an extremely rural area, where few vets--never mind exotic vets--are located and even supplies can be difficult to get. They didn't have a car, and weren't sure they would be able to continue to care for Hopper in the event that anything happened to them.

Fortunately, one of our fosters was willing to help. She traveled to Hopper's former home and picked them up--at the time, Hopper was named Hope, but since being on a hearty diet of worms and soft salmon pellets "she" grew quickly and it was obvious that Hope was actually a little gentleman. So, we named him after the resilient and kick-ass character Hopper from the popular Netflix series Stranger Things :) It seemed appropriate.

So... is this never-say-die axolotl going to be the newest member of your exotic crew? Where are our Stranger Things fans?!?

This festive little axolotl is Hopperโ€”Libertylandโ€™s resident Santa-in-training, complete with a squishy smile and gills that rival any holiday fringe. Heโ€™s cozy in his aquarium sleigh, dreaming of sugarplum shrimp and a family to call his own.

Hopper came to us with a heart full of hope and a tail ready to wiggle into yours. Whether youโ€™re looking to adopt or simply support his care, your kindness helps us keep the magic alive for rescue axolotls like him.

Every superhero squad needs a misunderstood villain โ€” and Zemo plays the role perfectly.

Heโ€™s dramatic in the best way: slow "blinks", bold entrances, and a flair for posing like heโ€™s starring in his own underwater saga. But beneath the mystique is a soft, lovable axolotl whoโ€™s been waiting months for the right person to see him.

Give Zemo the redemption arc he deserves.

Months ago, we welcomed one of our biggest sibling groups ever โ€” 12 superhero/villain axolotls who needed time, stability, and a soft place to land.

Since then, 8 have found their forever homes.
Now, just four remain: Gambit, Storm, Jack-Jack, and Zemo.

Theyโ€™ve grown. Theyโ€™ve healed. Their personalities have blossomed.
And as we celebrate a season filled with light, warmth, and new beginnings, weโ€™d love to see these four complete their journey, too.

When we talk about keeping axolotls healthy, we often focus on water changes, temperature, and diet โ€” but thereโ€™s an entire microscopic team working behind the scenes.

Our new blog dives into the nitrifying bacteria that make safe aquatic environments possible:
๐Ÿ”ฌ Nitrosomonas convert toxic ammonia into nitrite.
๐Ÿ”ฌ Nitrobacter take that nitrite and turn it into far less harmful nitrate.
๐Ÿ’ง And with stable KH, this cycle keeps moving โ€” protecting our animals from dangerous spikes.

These tiny chemolithoautotrophs (say THAT five times fast! ๐Ÿ˜) are the unsung heroes of every cycled tank. Read the full breakdown๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‰

Discover the role of nitrifying bacteria in maintaining safe water for axolotls. Learn how Nitrosomonas and Nitrobacter transform toxic ammonia and nitrite into safer compounds in aquatic environments.
