I have some black sand in my tank. Want to mix it with another type of sand as my wild type has been kind of hard to see since I went to black :p.

I was thinking red, purple, green, or light blue.


Red, grand and light blue I can get aquarium sand. But im wondering if this sand would be ok for my axie tank.

No. That sand has added calcium and will affect the pH of your water significantly. You need playsand, fine aquarium sand or pool filter sand.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
