Well, I just saw my Paramesotriton hongkongensis laying eggs. I have only had them for like two months, but I am informed on the whole newt breeding thing, so I was not completly shocked. Just thought I wouuld tell some people, becuase not many other people care, ha ha. Any general words of advice?

Mark, I assume you are reffering to fertility? You will see them developing.

No, I meant the fungus, but I am pretty sure I can tell now. Any more information would be awesome.

If they are moldy they will have fine hairs all over them. Its usually pretty easy to tell.

Ya, I have seen a few of those on the leaves, and I just threw them away. Thanks for the tip. Any more information would be appreciated.

    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?
