So after a while of thinking about it I've decided to upgrade my CFB tank. I've been wanting to set up a heavily planted tank for years to make the environment a bit more enriching for the newts, so this new tank gives me the perfect opportunity. I am also finally changing the substrate from pea gravel to fine sand as pea gravel is a pain to clean. I was wondering if anyone has ever used JBL AquaBasis Plus under sand in a planted tank or if it messes with the water chemistry too much? I used it before in an eft tank and were fine, but just want to see if anyone else has used it before?

Thanks!

    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?
