Leucistic Axolotl

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Leucistic Axolotl is often called the "Ghost Axolotl"? This is due to its pale pink or white skin and bright red or pink eyes.

Unlike their Albino siblings, Leucistic Axolotls remain their color, with ebony eyes that stand out more against their light skin. Leucism is a rare genetic disease that reduces the skin pigment cells, which results in a more pale appearance. The Leucistic Axolotl is often mistaken for an albino because of its pink gills and pale skin.

Considered one of the rarer axolotl morphs, prices typically range from $50 to $100 or more.

White Albino Axolotl

Fun Fact: Did you know that White Albino Axolotl's almost transparent skin lets you observe what happens inside their bodies? When examined under specialized lighting, you can see the rhythmic pulsations of its heart, the flowing circulation of blood vessels, and even the subtle movements of its digestive system!

The White Albino Axolotl presents a mesmerizing palette of pure1, snowy white that starkly contrasts its vibrant pink or red irises. Like other axolotls, White Albinos keep their youthful looks throughout their lives.

White Albino Axolotls are rarer due to their unique coloration and can cost you $60 to $120 or more.

Pink Axolotl

Fun Fact: Did you know that the Pink Axolotl is one of the most popular Axolotl morphs?

Pink Axolotls are a unique breed with soft, blush hues and dark, enigmatic eyes. They stand out from their light-shaded cousins, the Golden Albinos, with their pale pink bodies, gills, and black eyes. Axolotls are nocturnal and love meat, hunting for tiny fish, worms, and crustaceans. You can feed them brine shrimp, bloodworms, and specialty axolotl pellets in their tank.

Interestingly, despite their preference for a solitary existence, Pink Axolotls are far from anti-social when it's time to mate. Pink axolotls can cost you around $25-$45, depending on their age, size, specific breeder, and other factors.
