Hey I am wondering do I have to put them in a new tank or can they be grown in something else? I have heard that some parole have raised them in like a tupperware dish. I only want to try and raise 5 to 10 eggs. To give them to my friends. I know that they like room temperature to hatch. Can this be done or do i need to put them in a tank?

Yes tubaware is fine and they prefer 75 degrees until adult size. After they hatch separate into separate tubawares and do daily 20 percent water changes.

75 is way too warm for axolotls. You should try to keep them under 70F.

Water changes are dependent on the size of your containers, as well as what you're feeding, and how many animals you have in each tub. Generally, I recommend 100% water changes every day/other day. 20% would be far too little unless you only had one tiny larva in a giant tub.
