Thanks , first of all, for a really great forum.
I have fallen in love with axolotls my interest was piqued by a photo of one little guy on the internet.
So, after watching countless videos and reading everything i could find online about them it seems time to take care of one myself.

Im starting the process of getting the kit together and this forum has answered all of my initial questions, im sure once I have one ill have a bunch more.

Once i get going , not sure when, ill post my setups so others can catch my mistakes:happy:

Welcome to the forum!
Let me congratulate you for doing your research first, planning the set-up, etc, before getting your axolotl. It´s the way to go!
For any questions, here we are.

Hi kremsing,

Please accept a warm hello from a Lou'siana girl living a long way from home. I hope the forum gives you as much as I have found here. Look forward to reading more from you.

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum kremsing!!!

I too live in Louisiana and I used to own some axies, unfortunately mine passed away last hurricane season because we had to evacuate twice. If you have any questions feel free to ask or send me a pm.

Good luck!!!

    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?
