Hi Mike,

I live in the Bay Area and often times C.orientalis are sold in every fish shop.

These are 99.99% all WC, imported from Asia. Sad but true.

That being said, please drop me a private note, I have juvenile cb orientalis (which are harder to keep alive, so I need to know your experience with caudates.)
 
Actually Pin...I would think that WC orientalis would be just as hard...seeing the shape they often come in.
 
Joseph, yes that is true. I was more thinking from the viewpoint that juveniles can starve to death in a shorter amount of time and tend to need "smaller" food items, which may make them difficult for beginners.
 
Just curious, but how do you check for notes?
 
By "note", Pin-pin meant e-mail. If you go to anyone's user profile (click their name), it gives a click-on option to send that person an e-mail, even if their e-mail address isn't shown.
 
Er, notes? Usually my animals haven't resorted to leaving me notes. (Just kidding)

    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?
