hey everyone, just need some basic info for my newts, so, one of them is a common newt, the other two are palmate(right name?) newts they're all about the same size, about 3 inches long and 3/4 of an inch wide, just need to know, should i treat them any different or feed them differently?

Is the newt an eastern newt? just wandering? If so id feed it bloodworms sometimes newt pellets work in water. And in water or a bowl bloodworms work well.

Paul, its probably a smooth newt Triturus vulgaris, since he lives in england.

Steve, feed them worms of sorts, but enclosure-wise, they're very similar.

    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?
