Hello there!

My axoltl seems to have a long term gill problem. It started when a fish hacked It. She never recovered. She was very ill at the time: had stopped eating for nearly two months. So I thought the lack of recovery had something to do with that. But now she's back to eating and still her gills don't grow back.
Any advices about what can be done?

    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?
