While I have never had any dietary problems with any axo, are there amphibian dietary supplements out there, particularly ones for treating food before feeding?

Any personal observations?

It's tough to get something that will stick to the food. if you use some sort of good fish pellet food it should be sufficient. I'm partial to salmon pellets.

Apparently calcium is sometimes an issue. You can easily get earthworms to become calcium rich by sprinkling some on them, then they eat it and become wriggly wormy vitamins.

    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?
