The GFP blue-gill dirty leucistic axolotl is a rare and highly sought-after genetic combination that brings together several unique traits. While its base coloration is the characteristic pale pinkish-white of a leucistic, this morph is distinguished by the "dirty" aspect—a scattering of dark, freckle-like speckles across its body and face that gives it a one-of-a-kind pattern. Even more captivating are its vibrant, bluish-hued gills, which create a stunning visual contrast against its pale body and dark eyes. As if this weren't enough, the added GFP gene provides a final flourish of fluorescence, causing the entire creature to glow a vivid, otherworldly green when viewed under UV or blue light, transforming this speckled aquatic amphibian into a truly spectacular and luminous spectacle.
Infused with Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), this axolotl radiates a captivating glow under blue aquarium lighting, amplifying its visual allure. The delicate grey “dirty” pattern adds texture and depth, enhancing its unique charm. Renowned for their extraordinary regenerative abilities, axolotls embody resilience and adaptability. This remarkable variant, with its rare and distinguished traits, sets a new benchmark in aquatic beauty and elegance.
What you need to know Before Buying an Axolotl
It’s important to understand the essentials of proper care and habitat setup. Your tank should hold at least 29 gallons for one axolotl, though a 40-gallon breeder tank is ideal. Use a gentle filter, such as a sponge filter, to prevent strong currents that can stress your pet.
