Hi!! I just got my very first axie yesterday and I'm already so in love with him/her ??? I was wondering if giving him a friend would be ok or not. Ive seen a lot of debate about proper tank size for multiple axolotls, so I'd like to hear your opinions :) My tank is 30 in long and 12 in deep with a 20 gal and a 50 gal HOB filter. My axolotl is a little over 4 inches I think. Thanks!!

As long as the new one is going to be about the same size, I should think it would be okay.

    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?
