Hello, my juvenile fire salamander started to act weird, it doesn t move much, it doesn’t hide anymore, it is a little chubby, i used to feed him 2 times a week, i keep it in my room and here are like 19-23 C degrees, is it sick? It does absolutely nothing

That is a little on the warm side. Be sure he has a water dish or water area to get in.

    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?
