Light Hypomelanistic Melanoid Axolotl

$399.99 – $449.99

Currently one of the rarest morphs in the world, Hypomelanistic Melanoid axolotls are extremely rare due to displaying three recessive genes all at once! As if that wasn't mind-blowing enough, some of these specimens are also saturated with xanthophores that result in stunning yellow-gold patches from head-to-tail. No two Hypomelanistic Melanoid axolotls are the same and each one is uniquely gifted with its own exclusive pattern and color intensity. Due to their rarity, we will only be offering a very limited amount as we will be keeping the majority of the few specimens we have for breeding and research purposes.

To ensure the safest arrival of your axolotl, we only ship on Mondays via UPS Next Day Air (overnight shipping) as this prevents the axolotls from being delayed. For additional information regarding our shipping procedures, read the Axolotl Planet Shipping / DOA Policy.

All about shipping your new axolotl!

We ship our axolotls every Monday. Prior to shipping your new axolotl, our team undergoes the Axolotl Planet shipping procedures. These include selecting and separating your new Axolotl, fasting your Axolotl for two days to ensure they do not defecate in the bag, adding ice packs to the shipping box, and cutting out insulation to perfectly fit the box. Axolotls are shipped overnight to ensure the safety of our animals.

I’ve been wanted to get an axolotl for my classroom. I took my time and cycled my tank and finally drove up to axolotl planet to pick one out. I brought my kids and we ended up bringing 2 home. One for school and one for home. They were all so cute and well taken care of. The owner was very informative and answered all my questions and packed up our 2 so well for our drive home. Here’s a picture of one of them as they acclimated to the tank.

Amazing shop! We stopped by on a whim and left with so much knowledge on these fascinating little guys. The guy gave us a tour of the the tanks and was extremely informative, knowledgeable, and obviously passionate about what they do. Even though we weren't there to purchase one, he was very enthusiastic to help answer all our questions! These guys are the pros and I would recommend anyone who is interested in owning an axolotl to talk to them. Tons of information and resources on their website as well!!

I highly recommend Axolotl Planet. We made an appointment to see the axolotls and to do some more research on owning one. I have a son that is very interested. Ellen did an amazing job explaining everything to my boys. She answered all their questions and gave them time to really study them. They really enjoyed learning about all the creators at Axolotl Planet. She even let them see the baby axolotls, chubby frogs, and even a Goliath Bird Eating Spider. My boys left so excited. We plan to go back in the future to purchase a filtration kit and then an axolotl. Thank you Ellen for your patience and kindness to my boys. We really had a great time and learned so much.

Before you buy your first axolotl...

Are you ready to purchase an axolotl? Before you do, there are a few super important things you should do first.
  1. Purchase a properly-sized tank and all of the necessary equipment for your axolotl. To learn more about this, read the Axolotl Planet guide titled The New Owner's Bulletproof Guide to Raising an Axolotl.
  2. Make sure you have established a healthy Nitrogen Cycle in your tank. To learn more about the nitrogen cycle, read the Axolotl Planet guide titled How to Cycle Your Aquarium.
  3. Read and understand the Axolotl Planet Shipping / DOA Policy.
If you are a first-time axolotl owner in North Texas, we highly recommend making an appointment at our Dallas Love Field Airport location to meet with our axolotl experts and learn all about what you need to do to prepare the perfect new home for your axolotl. If you aren't in North Texas, be sure you read both of the guides above, then visit our blog page to get more information about raising these amazing aquatic pets.
