Hey! my first axolotl is set to be shipped out on Monday so I am scrambling to get everything all set for the new baby. I have some questions on tubbing. My tank is not quite cycled yet. I have another week or two until it's done. So until then, what is the best way to tub? the general consensus that I've seen is that they need to be in a tub that they can stretch out and turn about in, with daily water changed with dechlorinated water. but I haven't yet seen or heard what temp they are supposed to stay at? is it the same as their tank? thank you all.

    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?
