A lot of players are wondering about what do Axolotls eat in Minecraft and the answer is tropical fish. But keep in mind that Axolotls eat tropical fish and nothing else. These colourful fishes scare easy are found in the warm ocean biomes, so a player needs to be far from a water body unless the fish spawns. They can be collected by a player using a bucket full of water. Once collected, a player can feed the Axolotls with fish.   

How to breed Axolotls in Minecraft?

Axolotls breed with each other like other animals in the game. In order to breed them, a player must collect two or more tropical fishes using the method described above. Thereafter, find two Axolotls and feed them with the tropical fish. If they are adults, they shall breed after having the fishes. Another thing to keep in mind that when a baby Axolotls spawns, it takes about 20 minutes for it to grow up, and only then will it be able to breed. However, these cute little animals cannot be tamed like an Ocelot.
