I’m cycling my tank ready for my first axolotl and wanted to check how I’m doing. The tank is 79cm wide, 30cm front to back, and 35cm high - would that be big enough for 2 or should I stick to one?

I set it up using Stability and Stress Coat (dechlorinated tap water). The parameters I’ve got so far are in the pic below. Is that normal for this stage? Anything else I need to do/should be doing? Thank you for your help; I want to make sure everything is spot on before I bring my new friend(s) home.

    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?
