Curious-anyone here ever mainatain an axolotl-are they difficult, hard to keep alive in captivity, worth it?

Nope, but I imagine they'd be cool.

They’re fairly easy and assure water clean, fed regularly and stable temperature

We have seven axolotls and they are fairly easy to keep. If you've kept saltwater than an axolotl will be no concern. Only kicker is they like cold water (around 63F is the sweet spot we have found) so a chiller is a must unless you want to use fans and an inkbird.

Substrate is something to consider. I know they have a reputation for trying to eat gravel.
