I believe they destroy plants, and do not like a strong current, but require heavy filtration.
I just figured setting up a coldwater hardscape species only tank would just be too much of a PITA, but, maybe one day.
I love those animals and I also thought about getting one but I am not sure if I can handle such an animal. If I decide to buy one I will also need a chiller. I do not own one because when I needed one I always looked for rental chillers because this is cheaper than buying one. At least I would love to have an Axolotl.
