My juvenile Axie doesn't always finish a full pellet of frozen blood worms
Should I take the remaining out or leave it until she eats them tomorrow??

Personally, I just take out whatever mine doesn't eat about 15-20 minutes after it looks like he's had his fill. I don't know what happens if you leave them in, though.

Thanks heaps I might look it up because they're baby flies and I might sound silly for saying this but I don't want them to turn into flies hahaha

You need to remove any uneaten bloodworm promptly after feeding. They wont turn into flies :happy:, but they will foul the water if left in there too long. Left in over night is definately too long!

    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?
