I just confirmed that my tanks with fish have velvet. I'm currently in the process of treating them now. Can axolotls get velvet too? If so, what do I treat them with?:confused:
 
I've never heard of an axolotl getting velvet, and I personally don't think they can. Are you keeping your axolotl with fish? Axolotls shouldn't be mixed with any other species - I'd separate them right away and keep an eye on your lotl for any signs of stress or sickness. I really don't think axolotls can get velvet, but it doesn't mean it can't harm them. Good luck!

    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?
