Dr Schultz and Lee welcome in Rick Preuss from Preuss Pets to discuss the AXOLOTL.

Who wants to win the spelling bee, score a bunch of points in scrabble and hear about the coolest creature that any kid who sees it will automatically love? If it's you, listen Saturday at 9AM as Doctor Will Schultz, DVM (retired) and Lee Cohen are joined in the studio by Rick Preuss from Preuss Pets to discuss the AXOLOTL. We begin with what is it and where is it from to a discussion about why they are so popular in culture, with kids and in scientific circles and are being studied for their ability to "regenerate" any body part!?! Learn all about the biggest mistake that many people make and how to avoid them with a few additional water tricks taught to you by Rick Preuss that can reduce the time needed to get your tank acclimated for them. You'll also hear all about the specific water conditions that are needed and how to maintain them for better keeping. Rick also ventures into his favorite fish at Doctor Schultz's request, the frog fish (pictured) below as an interesting aside.
