So I'm very interested in keeping salamanders/newts, but the temperature is a big barrier for me...I read an article on all the little ways to lower temperature, but as someone whose room is usually 75 or so degrees, I would need to lower it 10 whole degrees...so I was interested in you guys's set ups and how much it costed. I don't think I'd want to spend more than $30-$50 on cooling equipment though, so tell me if this is totally unrealistic. Thank you!

you can try keep them in a coleman cooler box or foam box
and put some coleman blue ice blocks.
but you will need to change them everyday to keep cool
its very tedious

    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?
