I've been doing some research and it seems to me as if care sheets for salamanders warn against using sphagnum moss due to acidity, but many frog care sheets seem to say sphagnum is ok. I'm just wondering if it is ok to use sphagnum in a frog's enclosure without any problem (soil wise not issues with being impacted) For reference I'm interested in keeping tomato, pixie and pacman frogs but I'm interested in a general answer
 
Sphagnum moss has a neutral pH. You're thinking peat moss which is acidic
 
it is really useful for holding moisture in your substrate - that's why it is in ABG mix

    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?
