I have 2 FBN, i was doing a water change today and noticed something that looks like a 'slug' in the tank, it was about 1cm in length and a whitish colour, i do have live plants in the tank so along with that some snails but i do generally keep them under control. any idea what these things are?
 
Probably planaria...
Having an assortment of different creatures in the tank can be very useful to make the tank a better place. Unless there are worrying numbers of any particular one, there shouldn´t be a problem.
 
ahh thank you i googled planaria and it does look like that! thanks!

    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?
