Track Axolotl Colors in Buckets

Identifying Axolotls by Bucket Icon

When you capture an axolotl in a bucket, the bucket's icon now displays the specific color of the axolotl inside. This eliminates the need to place buckets down to see what color variant you've caught.

How This Works

Each axolotl color variant—pink, brown, gold, cyan, and blue—has a distinct appearance. When that axolotl is in a bucket in your inventory, the bucket icon reflects that specific color, making identification instant.

Why This Matters

  • Breeding projects: Quickly identify which color variants you have for selective breeding
  • Storage organization: Sort axolotl buckets in chests by color without opening each one
  • Trading: Confirm you're trading the correct color to other players
  • Collecting: Track your progress toward collecting all five color variants

Practical Tip

When exploring caves or ocean areas hunting for specific axolotl colors, you can immediately see what you've caught without placing the bucket. This saves time and lets you decide whether to keep searching or move on to your next task.
