i gave her a salt bath today with 2 teaspoons of salt to 1 litre of water, i usually just do 1 teaspoon and the water stays clear, however with the two teaspoons all this white stuff was in the water after 10 minutes, i got her out, do u guys know whether its fungus or her mucus layer

did you use salt with some sort of anti-caking agent in it? thats the only thing i can think of if it was like a murky white. however if it was distinct little bits id say it was most likely fungus

    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?
