I have a 20 gallon long with a couple newts, and was just curious what are some good plants for them? I was looking into plants that they can climb on, plants that grow and eventually rest on the top of the water. any recommendations??
 
Any of the pondweed looking species they sell in bunches at the pet store can be used. They are fast growing and can either be left in bunches, or just left to float at the surface.
 
Elodea/Anacharis is a great aquarium plant, and so is Java Fern I believe
 
I just order tons of live Anacharis and got 90 gallon tank for my fire belly newts. I seriously can't wait to set everything up. There gonna think it's a Manson when they get in it

    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?
