Hi! Iv got 10 baby fire salamanders and they are starting to morph and come out of the water. What do I do transfer the morphed babies into a separate terrestrial tank?? Also what do you feed them?? They have been eating brine shrimp, blood worm and daphnia.

Please help- new to all of this

To make it easy you can transfer them to a tub of wet moist paper towels for now. And the easiest food would probably be chopped earth worms. :) Beautiful fire btw.

    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?
