Pachytriton labiatus and green-brown algae

Who can confirm or refute the assertion that the aquarium with Pachytriton labiatus is covering by coating of green-brown algae in a lesser degree that aquariums with other aquatic newts under conditions of the equal lighting?
 
you know it's funny you should mention that, but my tank has had a very similar algae, whilst the next door tank has none...
 
I was about to post this same question on a new thread but then spotted this one. I've never kept pachys until someone dumped two juvies on me and their tank grows a healthy new coat of algea every couple of days despite my persistent cleanings and water changes. I even started cramming live plants in there but it still comes back. Any ideas why?

    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?
