Hi,

I also have an axolotl. I think if you turn it upside down there should be a
small bulge at the base of the tail, if its pinkish i think its a boy and if its
paleish i think its a girl (but that could be the other way around). They eat
normal earthworms and i wouldn't bother with a filter if i were you, mine has
lived in not very clean water for nearly 4 years and is still going strong i
just clean it out every couple months or so.
