Why is my axolotls tail red?

Why is my axolotls tail red? Due to the axolotl’s translucent skin, you’ll be able to see their blood rushing during increased activity. Therefore, if your axolotl is feeding, hunting, breeding or just being active, you might see their gills turn bright red and their tail turn pink. Don’t panic! This is totally normal.
