I had axolotl larva and had one A. maculatum larva simular size. I needed space and thought I could buy some time if combined them for a week until I found the maculatum a permanant home. I knew Ambystoma larva not only eat other conspecifics larva, but also their own kind...I thought because they were the same size and the setup was large enough, it would be ok. Wrong...very dumb mistake. The axolotl larva swallowed the maculatum larva whole! He found a home alright...not what I had in mind. I felt very bad about this.
