Hi , I'm from Peru , I 'm working on a project to regenerate the ambystoma mexicanum , my idea is to observe the regeneration process by histological sections. Because they do not want to generate stress in animals when amputation an anesthetic was used. I tested with chloroform to obtain an induction in the first minute of placing the substance on a cotton , I have also used lidocaine 2%, the probe with xenopus laevis , this was about 20 ml of the substance for 10 minutes without looking at any stage induction . Please if you know any substance or any method which can effectively anesthetize and without side effects. Thank you. Forgiveness use google translator .

    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?
