Hi all, my name is Shauna and my partner's daughter is the proud owner of 2 axolotls Terry and Squishy.

Although we requested juveniles it seems we have ended up with adults and 2 weeks after settling them into their new home, a couple of hundred eggs.

So crash course in learning how to care, raise, feed etc has led me here to ask you all a million questions to ensure wonderful lives for my little ones :happy:

Off to get an API master test kit today as some of the babies have nubs and will need to start separating.

    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?
