Can I see some melanoids?

KevinS · Mar 10, 2010

I hear there's a good bit of variety in the appearance of melanoid axolotls, but that the "velvety black" type is most common. I've seen several pictures of darker axolotls labeled as melanoids, but none that I would call a velvety black so I'd be interested in seeing a variety of specimens to get a better feel for the variety within melanoids. Thanks.

Here is one of my female melanoids.

Here is my 'mini' mealnoid, it is about 14 months now. This one has more of a purple hue to it.

Melanoids are very cute indeed!

this is my "Lucy" she has bright green freckles on her face, but she doesn't have a shiny ring around the pupil, so must be a melanoid. some days her gills turn purple/maroon.

I never realized the melanoids could be so pretty. What a cool new addition.
