100_0651.jpgI'm a mom of two daughters, have kept a variety of pets, have tamed some wild animals that I share the neighbourhood with but I am new to keeping amphibians.

I am very happy to find a forum where I can ask for advice from those who have hands-on experience.

I am also happy to be able to share my new hobby.:happy:

I have 4 of what I believe to be Chinese fire-belly newts.

My questions concern temperature ranges for the winter season and the breeding season and also the GH (hardness) of the environment.

I included images of some of my charges.

Looking forward to feed-back!

Susan

Welcome to the forum! If you follow links in my sig to species accounts you can learn more about keeping firebellies. Newts like cool temperatures, that's very important.

    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?
