I have one 4 inch and six 2 inch babies that are currently housed in small plastic containers. The 4 incher is alone while the others are in groups of 3. They are happily eating thawed bloodworm and are growing nicely. I am changing the water daily and moving them to cleaned containers every few days.

Should I be thinking about moving them into larger homes? If yes, what size tanks? Can I put many axies together? Do I need to cycle the tanks first and if so how? If they are Ok in their small plastic containers, how big could they get before they need to be moved?

I know I've asked a lot. Hopefully people won't mind giving me some answers!
 
I was asking specifically about moving 2-4 inch axies. I think that post was talking about bigger ones. Does anyone have any ideas?

    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?
