i heard it was very easy to drown a waxworm, like they drown in seconds. i can feed my c. orientalis from tweezers things that dont move but i was just curious. i was thinking about getting them some waxworms to put some weight on them, thereyre skiny.
 
I've never had a problem with waxworms in aquatic setups. They wiggle for a few minutes at least. Just be careful not to feed primarily waxworms, as they're not the most nutritious.
 
yea, i just want them to have a little reserve so if one gets sick or something they dont die in a week. if the smaller one misses a feeding she gets so thin of i feel sorry.

    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?
