To tame you simply need to catch them in a bucket! Then they will be happy to swim along with you next time you go into water. Axolotls will act a lot like aquatic dogs and attack hostile mobs on your behalf. They'll fend off Drowned, Guardians, and even attack fish.
Axolotls eat tropical fish, which are generally found in ocean biomes. If you want to feed an axolotl, you'll need to use a bucket of tropical fish rather than single ones you've previously caught.
Since axolotls are hostile towards most aquatic mobs, players can use them to farm mobs as well. With a bit of creativity, players can create an automatic squid farm or guardian farm that uses axolotls to kill mobs. Players can also take them on underwater adventures and farm drowneds, squids, or whatever they want.

Simply is yes you can actually cook this bucket of axolotl. Just by plopping it into a furnace.MoreSimply is yes you can actually cook this bucket of axolotl. Just by plopping it into a furnace.
What do Axolotls eat in Minecraft? Head to ocean biomes and keep an eye out for tropical fish as they are the dish that the Axolotls like to chow down on. So grab yourself some, chuck them in a bucket and then feed them to your target.
As in real life, the axolotl comes in many colour variations – pink, green, and brown – and is ludicrously adorable. Eventually they'll be found in the new Lush Caves biome in the Minecraft 1.18 update, but also have heaps of new mechanics not shared by other Minecraft mobs.
