So i tried searching through the forums for "cycling" (seems a popular term, lots of related and unrelated stuff). I had found at one point a How-to using pure ammonia as the initial starter, but can't seem to find it now.

Does anyone here have a site/ forum topic, etc. they use when cycling? I could use a good guideline to follow. I just set-up my new 30 gallon tank and filled it 1/2 way with new water. Have an Eheim 2231 on order as well.

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?
