Andre, great piccys.

What type of camera and lens did u use? I have a Canon S50 5Megepixel, which can zoom in a lot but I think my babes are way too small to try and get a decent piccy. They don't even have legs yet!

Heather,

Yes they are all leucistics ... I'm now trying to get hold of some wildtype or any other type to mix the colors a bit

Mik,

I'm using a Nikon Coolpix 5700 that comes with a 35-280 mm lens. It can take Macro pics with the subject as close as 2cm from the lens. Not to mention that these pics were taken at maximum zoom (esp. the larger 5th pic). The auto-focus is a bit cumbersome but there's a possibility to manually adjust the focus.

Btw, Pic #5 was not altered ... and the subject's size nose-to-gills is about 12mm.

Great cam in all respects.

    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?
