Hello! :)

Since I live near the forest, I decided to go and look for wood pieces for my axolotl tank and I found a perfect cork wood branch, completely hollow on the inside, perfect to make a new hideout for them, (i'm aware that this type of wood floats but I was planning on attaching it to a few rocks), my question is; if i boil it thoroughly and scrub it for a few days, will it be safe for my axolotls?

    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?
