N. kaiseri egg deposition sites?

Now that my N. kaiseri have gone aquatic :), what information is available on preferred egg deposition sites for this species?
They've got plants, rocks, flowerpots, etc, but where should I look for the eggs (optimistic or what?). Also, do they tend to be secretive with egg deposition or lay in the open?
 
HI Alan,

My female deposits her eggs everywhere: at the underside of stones and on rocks (the "classical" sites) but actually, most eggs are laid in Elodea and Vallisneria.
 
Thank you Frank. I'll keep my eyes open and let everyone know if there is any success!

    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?
