I have this male paddle tail newt. I housed it with a female of its own species before, but they fought too much so i separated them. There was some bite marks with sand sticking on to it. I think I see a bit of fuzz on his tail. What should I do? Should I try the dirt quarantine?

Also, he swallowed a piece of gravel yesterday. Its those kind that comes in goldfish kits, the fake kind.

And he's still going, except he acts strange. He stays in the same position for a whole day.

He eats ok still

I'd appreciate the help

    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?
