Nice pictures Henk. Have your dunni taken to water yet? The ones I got from you are still terrestrial, but at least one has a very white chin...
Chris
 
Well so you have an active male ... my animals are not yet active, they will be when I start refreshing the water and cleaning up the tank a bit (planned for next week).
Greetings,
 
Should I replace the moss as well as water changes then?
Chris
 
Water changes are a general thrive. If the moss still ooks ok, I should leave it. But I think your animals might need one more year before they will breed Chris .. what is their size now ??
 
The three larger ones are between 3,5 and 5 inches now, and all three have lost their juvenile 'flecking'
Chris
 
Well you have done real well then.. with a bit of luck they may breed since my (older) adults are maybe a little larger but I have actually bred with them at that length...

    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?
