I chose this animal, because it is not common, and caught my attention.
The axolotl, meaning water monster, is an amphibious "urodel" who lives in Lake Xochimilco, and lakes of Mexico. In Mexico has traditionally been a food product.

At first
glance his strange appearance reminiscent of a giant big head. Its body is a
one elongated head with eyes wide. At the height of the neck has three pairs of
external gills side occasionally rises to the surface to breathe atmospheric
air also.
In his adulthood, where not all arrive, measure between 25 and 30 cm long. They can live 25 years. The aquarium maintenance is fairly simple, filter the water as this animal's is very dirty.
