I am getting a het. Lucy and Lucy next week, tank is all set up and ready to go but I need some ideas for plant placements! Could you please post pictures of your set ups? I notice there is something like this going for Axolotls for nothing for these guys! I look forward to seeing everyone's set ups!

Not the greatest snapshot but you get the idea. :) About 50 gallons water volume, lots of plants and hiding places. I do have a few fish, snails and shrimp as clean-up crew and nobody bothers anybody else. There are three female young adult P. waltl, all about 7-8" long.

Resurrecting this thread which I see has some old broken links; here's a current photo of my 50-gallon P. waltl planted tank. (The wood is resin but plants and moss are real.) It's been established for over 3 years and houses three females, one wild-type and two leucistic. Shown here is Gussy, a little over 8" long.

Hi, I was wondering what you have on the bottom of your tank. I'm trying to figure out substrate for plants at the bottom of mine. Thanks for any info, K

    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?
