GFP Melanoid Axolotl

Description

GFP stands for Green Fluorescent Protein which is a recessive genetic trait that can be contained in any Axolotl morph. This is done by the trait simply being passed down from generation to generation. Axolotls that contain the GFP genetic is able to ‘Glow In The Dark’ when exposed to blacklight, UV, or blue light. The Axolotls can only glow vibrant green under the glow lights.

GFP Melanoid Axolotls look very similar to dark Wild Types. However, this Axolotl has an increased amount of melanophores, or dark pigment, and lacks shiny pigments. This lack of shine means they don’t have golden flecks or other colours throughout their bodies like a wildtype. They are solid black in colour.
