I've bought four cans of dead food for my Ambystoma opacums to feed them when live food is getting rare in the colder time of the year, they have learned to take it. It's food in one piece that is conserved in it's one juices in such a matter that it doesn't lose too much nutrients. It also looks very juicy. I have bought crickets, grasshoppers, snails and catterpillars. But what I was wondering. Is it possible to feed one of these to my aquatic newts as a variation of their diet as well? Or are there any that they won't be able to digest (such as mealworms) or will get them ill? I have several Cynops-species and Pleurodeles waltl, they all take dead food.

    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?
