Well as you can probably guess my name is shawn. I live in Bremerton Wa. and am in the Navy. I just recently learned about Axolotls and am really curious about them. This site looks like a great place to start learning what I will need in order to raise a couple of them.

Welcome Shawn!
Just a warning... once you get one axolotl it's hard to stop. I have gotten 2 now in the last 5 months and if I had the room... scrap that I can make room... I mean the money for another tank I would have more!

They're like potato chips, can't have just one! Before you know it, you'll be moving all of your living room furniture out to make room for more tanks.

Have you found www.axolotl.org yet? That's the best place to start with basic information.

Welcome to the forum!

    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?
