One of the nee axolotls i just got came missing a gill, is there anything i can do to help her grow it back or should i just let it grow back by itself?
 
Missing how? Missing like deteriorated, missing like one of the others bit it off or something similar or missing like for some reason she just has one less gill than normal? Do you have any pictures?
 
Bitten off by another axolotl
 
One of my axies gills were bitten off by another and it never grew back. It's just a little stump in the middle of the other two. It's not harming him at all so he just looks a little lopsided. It may regrow, but it may not. Just keep an eye on it, and watch for fungus.

    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?
