I've been looking for pure ammonia instead of using brine shrimp and all I found was 'Cloudy Ammonia'. It was in the cleaning section of woolworths (a grocery store). Would this be all right to use? Or am i better off using brine shrimp?

Thank you :] I didn't buy it. It didn't say pure ammonia on the bottle and mum didn't want me to risk it. The cycling is going well, however :D

I believe that cloudy ammonia contains detergent.

    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?
