Glowing Axoltl Aquarium
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The assembly was easy and fun to make with my kids. They enjoyed being able to make the gel/slime and put the stickers on the aquarium. However the product does not glow very much. Overall it was a safe and fun activity to do with my kids!

Fun to make with the kids
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kids had fun making the glowing aquarium. That’s all that mattered to me. It was easy to make the filling. There was a lot of it left which we just tossed in the trash. The only thing was it didn’t glow that much. We left it in the sunlight and under a lamp to charge; however, my daughter was disappointed with the lack of “glowing.”

Great Toddler Activity!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Man, my kid had a blast making this aquarium! Such a fun activity for us to do together. My child is 3, so a little younger than the age requirement, but totally able to make the aquarium with a little help. We loved mixing the slime gel and decorating the outside with the provided stickers. We were especially delighted to see the glow in the dark stickers in action! The product is a little smaller than it seems on the box, but overall it was a great activity for my toddler!

Can’t see the figures well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Packaging was safe and secure. Not very durable but not easily breakable. Probably wouldn’t buy myself for the value. The mini axolotls are adorable and there are plenty included. The bubble solution is very messy and hard to clean up. It is thick and very hard to see the axolotls inside. The stickers do not glow as advertised. All and all it is versatile.

Please note that the stickers require charging under a bright or blue light and will produce a subtle glow.

Fun family craft
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids really enjoyed making the axolotl aquarium and decorating it. There was plenty of filler to make multiple jars or use as sensory fun. I do wish the filler was more see through so they could see the figures in the jar, also the glow in the dark stickers only worked the first day. Either way it was a fun craft for us to do as a family!

You will need to charge the stickers with a bright or blue light each time you want them to glow.

It’s amazing for your kids
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Glowing Axolotl Aquarium is a fun and unique piece that’s both eye-catching and functional. The durability is solid, with sturdy materials that hold up well over time. I felt it was designed with safety in mind, especially for younger users, since there are no sharp edges or small loose parts. The packaging was neat and secure, ensuring everything arrived without damage. The assembly process was simple and straightforward, taking just a few minutes to set up without any hassle. What I like most is the versatility—it works great as a decorative piece, a calming night light, or even as a fun addition to a child’s room. Overall, it’s a well-made and creative product that adds a glowing touch to any space.

Loved this craft
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was such a fun craft to do with my daughter. She loved decorating the aquarium tank, especially with the sensory gel that you add. Directions were very easy to follow and it made an adorable finished product. Bonus was that we could see it glow in the dark at night. Just be prepared to get a little messy if you play with the leftover nontoxic gel.

Good fun
Fun activity for my 8 yr old. It doesn’t turn out the same as the pic- you can’t see the axlotls as clearly through the gel but we put them up to the sides as much as possible. There was a good amount of gel leftover I put in a ziplock bag and let her push it around from the outside like a sensory bag.

Very disappointing
Doesn’t glow and my son is very very disappointed. Not worth the money. Not sure why the pictures advertise that they glow! Also the glow stickers don’t stick.

We're sorry to hear of the disappointing experience. The finished product does require "charging" under a bright or blue light and will product a subtle glow. Cleaning hands before assembly of the stickers may assist in them sticking. Please contact consumer@fabercastell.com so we may assist you further directly.

Let down
Doesn’t glow and makes a huge mess. Disappointed with final product.

We're sorry to hear of your issue - the assembled terrarium does require some "charging" to produce a subtle glow. We recommend covering your workspace and wearing old clothes or a smock before assembly.

Should not buy
When I bought this, it looked so cool, but when I actually tried it, the color of the magic powder looked nothing like the box said it looked like. After, I couldn’t clean up the magic powder and it is still there. I tried to wipe it, but that didn’t work and the box said nothing on how to clean it. The axolotls were barely even seen. I would not recommend this product.

We're sorry to hear of your disappointment. We do recommend covering your work area and wearing old clothing or a smock. The color in your photo does look layered and colorful, and your axolotl are visible. You may want to push them closer to the edges of the container for easier viewing.

Not glowing
Fun to do with my son. Fairly quick and easy way, but stickers don’t glow!!! Tried UV light and nothing
1 reply from Faber Castell team team - 6 months ago
We're sorry to hear you experienced difficulty with the glow stickers - they should produce a subtle glow when light by a bright or blue light. But they will fade over time.

Not worth $16
Set up was fast but I wouldn’t pay more than 8 or 10 dollars for this , $16 and it’s hard to see the little creatures once’s they are in the solution , we pressed them against the cup to see them but they are slimy so they move. This is something I know will be in the trash by the weekend

Fun
This was a cute quick project for 5-7 year olds. They still needed a little help and would recommend glue the top down so they can’t play with the gel.

Fun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This axolotl aquarium is a lot of fun and versatile. Worth the price and very durable to prevent spillage in the secure packaging. Not much of a scent.
