hello, don't quite know where to post this so i thought how about here.

main question really is i want to try and bring the time my newts breed this year forward. so i'm slightly warming up my shed a bit more and so on, but do you think it would also be worth increasing the light hours for them?? just trying to trick them abit more??

any ideas any one?? don't quite know if it is worth it or not? any ideas
 
I´d say it depends on which species you are talking about. Some species seem to be affected a lot more by photoperiod, while others will breed regardless of pretty much anything except being healthy.
If you specify the species, someone will be able to help you further.
 
well, at the mo, it would be fire salas, crocodile newts and marbled to start with?

    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?
