I've had this little bugger for about 3 months now, and seems to be doing just fine. Eats very well anything I try to feed it with, be it worms (E. foetida), mealworms or isopods.

I don't really have a lot to say about it, just wanted to share some pictures and maybe get confirmation of what sex it might be (I have my own guess, but I think it's better not to bias your opinion on it)

The first two pictures are from when it was still a new comer.

I've only added these leaves today, for anyone who's wondering, these are magnolia tree leaves.

I wanted to take a picture of it without any dirt on, but as soon as I placed it on the water, it zapped right away into the leaves, so I didn't had a chance to take that shot.

I was also wondering if I could get one or two more specimens to this tub (50x35x15cm)

Cheers

    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?
