I am a somewhat experienced newt and salamander enthusiast, mostly working with wild and captive native species that are found in the three most salamander-rich states in North America. I think I'll learn a lot on here, and I always enjoy connecting with other nature enthusiasts. Expanding my collection, but I'm always looking for a good trade to herptile enthusiasts in other areas where it is legal to keep the species I possess. I also enjoy studying, observing and/or keeping arthropods, especially larger insects, bees, spiders and snails, reptiles (of course), aquarium fish or sport fish for stocking, and native mammals. I've had 13 years of experience working with amphibians. Thanks everyone, and I'm looking forward to discussing matters regarding salamanders and newts!

    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?
