GFP (Glowing) Golden Albino Juvenile Axolotl
GFP axolotls are a type of axolotl that have been genetically modified to express the green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene. This gene comes from jellyfish, and it causes the axolotl’s cells to glow green under ultraviolet (UV) light. GFP axolotls are not naturally occurring, and they were first created by scientists in the early 2000s.
GFP axolotls are not significantly different from other axolotls in terms of their behavior or care requirements. However, they do require UV light to show their fluorescent properties. If you are interested in getting a GFP axolotl, be sure to do your research and find a reputable breeder.
