We've had a few snails pollding around the tank for a while now and they've never been a problem until now, they've laid hundreds of eggs! Me and the hubby will be removing these later tonight when his home, whats the best way to remove the eggs and the snails, dont particularily want to touch them, i hate snails, I read that putting a lettuce leaf or cucumber slice in the tank will lure them on to it? Does this work? and does anyone know how long it might take to lure them all out? 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?
