I am looking for advice. About three months ago, my axi - littles hatched out and now they are around 10-15 cm long, with all the necessary legs and toes. Not big enough to sell yet, I don't think. I have 150 of them and they are all in big storage containers, which are completely cleaned daily. It is sooo time consuming but they are so adorable when they're little! I am starting to think about getting filtration and bigger tanks started to cope with them until I can get them big enough to sell. This is a first for me - previous babies have never survived. Does anyone have any advice or ideas as to when is a good time to start filtration etc, or any comments about their experiences?
 
Your best people to speak to are John and Mikki.

I know one of Johns Axies has just laid eggs.

Mikki has got around 60 babies in a main tank with filters and pumps etc.

Im sure they will stick there heads in soon and help you out.

Good luck with them all!

Do we get any pictures?

    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?
