I had 3 eggs together in one plastic tub, and the first one's just hatched this morning, :D

because of the relatively small amount of eggs i have i really want to keep them all alive, or at least give them the best chance,

so should i move the 2 other eggs to another tub? or move the larvae to another tub? or do nothing :confused:

the tub is oval shaped and roughly (cm) 25 L * 10 W * 5 D
 
You can leave it for the first 24hrs but then you are going to be feeding it and the water will need changing morning and night after feeds so it doesnt go yuk.
I moved my babies in the first hours so i didnt disrupt the eggs too much.
 
Yes i agree, eggs dont need water changes but hatchlings do, your hatchling will be fine being moved to a new tub, just try keep the temperature the same.

    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?
