So recently I had a infestation of brown algae, then brown worms started to show up in the stuff, and now they are everywhere along with tiny white ones. I did a small water change, but now my axolotl seems much slower than usual, her gills are also very pale and the fluff on them looks contracted. I'd appreciate any advice even if it's small!
 
I would start with 10% water changes daily for a week and see if things improve. Nothing beats clean water.

    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?
