Hey all, I have decided that I want to breed fire salamanders (preferably the terrestris subspecies) After much reading and research I have got an "adult" tank set up that I am happy with but was wondering if anyone could help with the ideal breeding tank set up advice? I have an old 3 foot (125 liter) aquarium that I have converted with a wire mesh lid that I will be using for the breeding tank. would it be a good idea to split the take half water half land? if so how deep should the water be? any advice on the breeding side would be most welcome :)

Thanks
Chris

    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?
