Axolotls are useful pets that players can have in Minecraft to aid them in their underwater battles. This is what it takes to raise more of them.
Mobs, short for mobile, are an integral part of the Minecraft experience. While some of these AI entities are hostile monsters, some of them are animals, such as cows and pigs, that players can use as livestock. Others, like wolves and ocelots, are pets that can aid in combat. As the years progress, fans speculate which mobs Mojang will add to the game, and with the long-awaited Caves & Cliffs update, the Axolotls were finally added to the world.
These rare species of salamanders from Mexico are an aquatic companion that can aid players in underwater fights. Not only can they play dead to avoid further damage from enemies, but defeating a monster they are in combat with grants the player health regeneration. They are a perfect ally to face underwater temples and, like other mobs, can be raised. Here’s what players need to know to build an army of fellow axolotls.
Minecraft Axolotl pet guide
Finding Axolotls
- Players cannot breed axolotls if they don’t have any! To find them, head to a cave below sea level and look for underground ponds. Specifically, they will appear below the y63 coordinate in areas not illuminated by light. Given the treacherous nature of the caves they inhabit, players will want to properly equip themselves with enough weapons and resources before caving underground.
Carrying axolotl
- While they can be raised in any body of water under the right conditions, it is much safer for players to do so while on the surface or in their own home base. Players can carry many axolotls at once as long as they have the means to do so: a bucket full of water, with one axolotl per bucket. These amphibian creatures can’t last long without water, so prepare several buckets before looking for them. After right-clicking on an axolotl with a bucket of water, they will automatically be added to the player’s inventory. Additionally, picking up an axolotl with a bucket will prevent them from disappearing or disappearing when out of range of the player, so players can name them with a name tag item and keep them as pets permanently.
Axolotl breeding
- Once players have more than one axolotl with them, they will be able to raise more as long as they have tropical fish. While there are many variants of these fish, any one of them will do. To catch them, grab a fishing pole or a few more buckets and head to a warm or warm marine biome, where they can be found swimming through the water. Once players have obtained an amount they deem appropriate, they can return to their axolotls and right-click on one of them using the freshly caught tropical fish. As long as the fed axolotl has another one nearby, a baby will reproduce similarly to how other mobs function. If players have leftover tropical fish, they can use them on babies to speed up their growth.
