hey, what does it mean when baby axies tails start to curl? a few of mine have done so in the last few hours, just wondering if there is something wrong with them, maybe they are stressed or something? has this happened to anyone before?
 
yes i think it might mean they are stressed, that's what happened to mine before they died
:-( but i could be wrong
 
check the water temp, quality, usually a cold water change will make them happy.
 
I have definately found that is a sign of imminent death.

from what iv'e read i think it's only if they curl @ the very tip of the tail meaning there stressed, i wouldn't worry too much yet Hailz

    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?
