Where are good online places to buy daphnia for axolotl larvae? I have vinegar eel cultures, microworm cultures and bbs. I want to keep a variety of live foods for them and betta fry.

Thank you for sharing these places to buy. However, we need addresses and probably websites to check out all prices.

Another option is to buy daphnia 'eggs'. They're easy to ship and won't die on you.
You get better hatch rates if you mix in distilled/RO water. Once they hatch, you'll have daphnia for life. Even if you population crash, just leave it alone for a few weeks and they'll come back. You can see white specs on the side of your tank/container. Those are the daphnia 'eggs'.

    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?
