I am unsure what I am going to feed my baby axolotls once they hatch. What are the pros and cons of using Daphnia?
 
Pro daphnia will live in freshwater in till eaten, if you keep culture going you have free food.
Cons some say hard to keep culture going, takes more money and space than bbs. I have heard can lose whole culture for no apparent reason.
 
How would I go about starting a Daphnia culture?
 
On the right top of home page tap caudata.org sites then tap caudata culture then tap articles scroll down to microfoods for Caudate Larvae they have lots of answers.:happy:

    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?
