Finally, Minecrafters should have a breeding tank to house their axolotls in so that they reproduce quickly. To do this, place water source blocks on land and then build walls around the tank. When building the tank for your little friends, make sure that the walls are one block higher than the water surface.
If you don’t build this one-block high wall, the axolotls might escape into nearby oceans or bodies of water. Also, it would be a good idea to build your pool near a place where tropical fish are easy to find. This way, players can quickly feed the axolotls with the fish without wasting time.
Once your pool is ready, just put the axolotls in and add the buckets of tropical fish. The chance of getting a blue axolotl is still pretty slim, but you can keep breeding axolotls to increase your chances of getting one.
