Hello I decided to change my setup for my newts. I decieded in the end to have it fully aquatic with a zoo-med turtle dock with some moss and a hide. Just incase they want to leave the water. Heres some photos. The male within hours tried to mate with the female. he was wiggling his tail alot and arching. He then released some of his sperm but the female went the other way! lol He is trying his hardest to impress her.

Nice tank, I like the turtle dock. I've seen it in some other setups and it's a great way to save space for mostly aquatic species.

    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?
