Hey guys i'm hoping to breed my newts in the future and was wanting to set up a tank or two in advance so I can grow all the plants and be prepared etc..

What is the gallons per newt ratio for larvae approaching metamorphosis and terrestrial juveniles? Or just a rough size guide?

Can anyone show me their set ups? :D
 
Thank you Chinadog that was very helpful! Love all the pictures along the way too. I hope I can be as successful as you :D

    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?
