I thought I was getting a baby axolotl, but when it turned up it was almost full-grown. I thought it would be okay to keep the baby in my 25L tank (46x25cm) for a few weeks until my new tank had cycled properly. however my tank is way too small for the axolotl that turned up. Will he be okay for a few weeks until I can get my new tank cycled?
 
Also (newbie question here). if I moved everything (sand, ornaments, filter, plants and cycled water) into the tank, would the cycle continue? Or would it have to start again?

    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?
