Hello im Ray from Adelaide, Australia and i just love this site.I would like to know if instead of using gravel,which i have realized the stuff im using is too small from using the knowledge from this site , can i use pebbles to cover the bottom of my tank?The pebbles i have range from 30 to 50mm in size. or will their little legs get stuck in the gaps?
 
Welcome to the forum.

I think that depends on what animal you have. Is it Axolotls?
 
Pebbles are ridiculously hard to clean. Crud and poo-dust gets trapped in them, and can cause water to foul. Your best bet is to go with either a bare-bottomed tank, or a thin layer of fine sand.

    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?
