I've had java moss in my tank for several months now and ever since adding it my 2 year old male axie collects it and puts it in his hiding area. Is this normal? He will go over to it, grab it in his mouth, and swim over to where he wants it. I really don't mind, after all it is his home, but I've never heard of this behavior before.
 
This sounds strange :) We have a hollowed out log in our tank that one of the axolotls seems to move stuff into, usually it's bits of uneaten food and poop though! At least makes cleaning easier :)

    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?
