GFP Wild Type Axolotl (Green Glowing Axolotl)

GFP Wild Type axolotls combine the natural olive, brown, gray, and black appearance of a wild type axolotl with the Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) trait. Under normal lighting they look like naturally colored wild types; under suitable blue or UV lighting the GFP trait can produce a bright fluorescent green glow.

Is this the “green axolotl” people search for?

Sometimes. Axolotls are not naturally neon green under ordinary light, but GFP axolotls can fluoresce green under the right lighting. If you are looking for a green-glowing axolotl, GFP wild type is one of the closest matches.
