you need today.

THE AXO LABORATORY
We do not simply decorate a tank.
We design a refuge.
Every AXO idea begins with a real need: shelter, clean feeding, observation, organisation or personal expression. Soft forms, modular design and traceable choices come before visual effect.

Private care journal
Store your animal profile, photos, water readings and observations locally on your own device. Export to CSV or JSON whenever you choose.
Find nearby veterinary care
Search nearby practices through OpenStreetMap, then call to confirm that the team treats axolotls before travelling.
Educational missions
Games about water, habitat, observation and safe routines. Progress is virtual, free and stored only on the device.
Important: AXO tools provide educational reference points, not veterinary diagnoses. Urgent symptoms or worrying changes always require a qualified exotic or aquatic veterinarian.
MATERIALS LAB · TRACEABLE QUALITY
A material name
is not proof of safety.
Each creation is classified by its real intended use. Dry-side and external pieces never become “aquarium safe” simply because a particular filament, paint or finish is popular. Geometry, edges, cleaning, stability, curing and the exact assembly must all be checked on a physical prototype.
- Clear dry-side or aquatic-candidate status
- Batch, material and process records
- Physical fit, edge and cleaning checks
- No permanent-water-contact promise by default
