Picture 1 is of my little wild type, Xochi's, tank. Not sure I'm fully happy though yet, suggestions welcome! Plenty more jiggling to be done! Gonna put my little golden, Milco, in there when s/he's big enough :)

Picture 2 is of my leucistics' tank, Hoshi and Jake. They seem quite happy with it like that so I'll probably leave it as it is for now :)

VERY CUTE ZOE! whoops didn't know caps lock was on haha! the orange sand is epic! is that a 2ft tank? wow it looks so small.. your axies must be huge lol!

Hey Zoe!

What size is your tank? It looks terribly small for two axies - it might be time to upgrade! I got caught out when I bought my two, got what looked like a HUGE tank... When they were babies... then they turned into monsters and I understood the 10 gallons per adult rule!
 
The black and white tank is a temporary for my two baby lotls. They're leucistic and melanoid, hence the black and white theme.

The kitchen tank is currently Swarley's, and eventually Momo and Toothless's too.

Its a 2 footer, 64 litre . Unfortunately...I can't upgrade :(. They seem happy in it though.

Yeah the orange is cool :p And they do enjoy uprooting the plants so I have given up re-planting them and just put weights on them so they stay down!

And, yeah, they are pretty big, I am thinking of re-naming Tyrone, the wild type, to be called Podge, making them Pinky and Podge! He's rather podgy lol.

    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?
