Hi
Is there anything one should do before putting your hands into the tank and also if I am adding water to the tank how long does it take for a declorinator to work? Sorry this maybe the wrong section too - oops
Cheers
Chris

You should wash your hands well, and rinse them REALLY well (remove all traces of soap, and then rinse some more). If you're adding dechlorinating drops, they should work instantly. I usually put my required number of drops into my bucket (usually a milk jug) first, then add the water, so it all gets mixed really well.

    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?
