Re: Introducing p. watl to each other

Are they all adults? As long as there isn’t a massive size difference they should be fine. Aggression is usually only a factor during feeding so try spreading food out or hand feed to avoid those crocodile rolls on limbs.

Re: Introducing p. watl to each other

I have several of varying - but similar - sizes that didn't grow up together. As long as they can't eat each other and are watched for aggression, I don't see an issue.

    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?
