I'm thinking about getting one of these, may not, but maybe I will..
I know with axies you can't use gravel as a substrate, but can you with these?
My plan is to put one (maybe more) in a 3ft aquarium, with branches plants.. and a small pond.

So is gravel OK with these, or what about sand?
It will only be a temporary solution if it is OK of coarse. Thanks! :D

Edit: And I am aware you need a license, etc. :)
 
what are you thinking of doing? if your breeding I would not know much. Just keeping them i dont think gravel will do any harm, i would stay away from dry sand with these guys. keep em in high humidity of course, but they will spend most of there time up off the ground, so i dont know if substrate will be a huge problem
 
Thanks for the reply, I found my way over to the Frog Forum, which is great!
Sand & gravel are both no-nos, so I'm still thinking about my other options. I'm not sure if I will even be getting one, but I love the look of them!
 
from what i've read i think coconut coir and moss is probably the best for this frogs.
 
They make Grrrreat Pets...
I have posted pics under different topic.

    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?
