I was wondering how long i had to wait after using it to put it in the tank. I used aquarium safe sealent to glue some PVc pipes together for some hiding and wanted to know how long to wait cause the bottle says 24-48 hrs.
 
Hi Amandalyn,

To be safe, i would wait at least for 2 whole days, even 3.

Before putting it in the tank, i would give it a good rinse, check that everything is in order and no residue.

Cheers
 
it been 48 hrs do you think its safe if i soak it overnight and put it in tomorrow?
 
give it til tomorrow, and give it a light rub with a sponge and some warm water, make sure there isnt any sealant hanging off it, and you should be right...

good luck
 
Put it in the tank today and both my axis seem to love it. Sugar was swimming all around it explorin it and Spice just layed there with the attitude of gee whats all the fuss about hasent this always been here LOL

    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?
