I am having issues finding topsoil for my tiger salamander. I want to use a mix of eco earth and organic top soil. I’ve seen Scott’s and Earth Gro recommendations in old threads, but when I look up reviews for them they’re considered clumpy, full of mulch or sand, or containing live or dead animals.

I’d love if someone could point me toward a great brand. Thank you!

Try Eco Earth or something like that. You can get a good deal on Amazon with free shipping if you have prime.

    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?
