Water changing?

Scoop or siphon the water out and run it through a brine shrimp net. Put back any Daphnia caught.

I never did water changes on my daphnia tank. I just replaced water that evaporated, and trusted the cycle and algae would take care of the rest.
I combine water change with harvest. Exactly like Coastal Groovin describes, but I put the daphnia into newt tanks
I also take out the sinking debris occasionally with a baster, and this water just gets dumped. It probably has some daphnia, but there is no way to recover them.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
