Hi there!

I'm new to caudata and have 3 almost fully grown axolotls, 2 wild brothers and one leucistic unsexed :p.
I'm keeping them in a 150L tank with a diet of axolotl tucker and pellets.

I have recently noticed one of my wild types developing a white tip on the end of one of his gill fronds. I have been doing research as to figure out what it was and came across temporary anaemia, which sounds about right since I've been having problems with acidity.
Anyways, I did a good water change today and hopefully things will be alright.

Great to be here and hope to have many future discussions =D

    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?
