That’s around 36 US gallons approximately (around 130 litres).
Yes that would be fine for an axolotl, they cannot of course be kept with fish.

As a tropical set up for fish there are a vast variety of fish that can be kept, if you were interested in a community stick to peaceful fish that grow no larger than 4″-5″, or over 2″-3″ for shoaling fish.

It's approx 31 imperial gallons or 36 US and 140 litres.! However it's not volume but length of tank that's more important. I'd prefer a slightly longer tank for an adult (45cms) but it should be fine for a young one.
They prefer temperature around 18 to 24 degrees any lower they become sluggish and any higher they can become stressed leading to disease. As long as the tank is kept in a warm room they should be fine without a heater. It's better if you filter the tank though as they produce a lot of waste and require frequent water changes without one.
If you decide on fish choose small growing fish and dwarf varieties of plecs. There are numerous you can choose from but please resist any temptation to get a goldfish. Anything under 4ft is too small to adequately house them.
