whats going on my axie keeps making noises every so often and last night i saw him/her going up and getting a drink of air why is he doing that whats going on please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
What kind of filtration/airation does your tank have? What kind of lid?
 
Topher, axolotls have rudimentary lungs, and do occasionally use them. They'll go up for air and make a splash or pop sound.
 
Yeah,don't fret Topher,one of mine does it a lot,then doesn't do it for ages,then goes back to going up regularly.At first I was worried but am used to it now.My other axie never seems to do it.It's just one of those axie things to do

    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?
