Crazy stuff..

Well, unfortunately my Hongkong didn't make it, just stopped eating unfortunately, but the craziest thing happened.

After Deacon passed, I left the tank for a week or so before cleaning it out. I drained it just about totally and vaccuumed it, but left some water so as to have a bit of a bacteria culture.

I went in and looked today and there is a little brown larvae swimming around! I don't know how it survived the vaccuuming because I went really crazy cleaning the gravel and such, but somehow it did!

Hopefully little Deacon Jr. will make 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?
