Chinese warty newt care sheet?Help!
- Thread starter Red Eft14
- Start date
In general, I would say that care is very similar to the firebellies, except that the animal is larger and thus needs more tank space. Keep it cool and aquatic or semi-aquatic, and it will be fine. The caresheets for C. orientalis and pyrrhogaster could be used as a general guide.
Caudata Culture Caresheets
By the way, I expect the next question will be 'why doesn't Caudata Culture have a caresheet for any of the warty newts'. Sigh, we've been trying for many years. Just haven't gotten together an author with experience + the right references.

Thanks for telling me that the care is similar to firebellies...so that means cool temprature,heavly planted tank with driftwood maybe sticking out the water for a land area,they eat bloodworms,shrimp,red wigglers,and minnows,and thats about it.Thanks.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
