{"product_id":"15cm-assorted-axolotl-walking-fish-lge","title":"15cm+ Assorted Axolotl (walking Fish) (LGE)","description":"Fascinating, don't keep with fish\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMexican walking fish are fascinating creatures looking, and often acting, like miniature pre historic monsters. These animals can grow up to 30cm in size make excellent pets, living up to 10 years. Axolotls are the larval stage of a salamander, and are different from other amphibians in that they have the ability to reproduce while remaining a sexually mature larva.  They also have the ability to undergo metamorphosis (similar to a tadpole changing into a frog) and change to an air breathing, land dwelling, salamander, but this very seldom occurs.  It seems that most strains have now lost the ability to metamorphose.  Mexican walking fish come in various colours, including dark brown , olive, black, albino and golden (pictured above) forms, (which have bright pink gills) and a piebald (spotted) form, which is seldom seen. The name walking fish refers to the animals habit of walking whilst under water.  They should not be removed from their aquarium and forced to crawl on land, as they cannot breathe out of water.","brand":"Just For Pets Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45486989082800,"sku":"LW050LGE","price":99.63,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.justforpets.com.au\/products\/15cm-assorted-axolotl-walking-fish-lge","provider":"Just For Pets Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
