Can I keep my paddle tailed with with 1 or 2 rosy red minnows until he eats them? these fish will mostly be for feeding rather than an actual tank mate. The tank is a 10 gallon and is half way full. It has a bit of a land potion even though it is unessesary. Also can shrimp or snails live in there as food as well. If so want kind. Thank you for all you responses.

I would avoid fish as they tend to be nutritionally poor for caudates, as well as being a possible disease vector. But if you are dead set on doing it, be sure to quarantine the fish for a few months prior to introducing them into your newt's tank.

A better feeding option for your newt would be worms, scuds, and daphnia.

    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?
