Yes. There is a small number of snails in a few of my vivariums. Not sure if the salamanders eat them, but either way they add a potential food source

I have some small garden snails in my enclosure. I'm not sure if they get eaten or not either. My Blue-Spotted doesn't really like being hand fed. She much rather would hunt for her food. But I imagine that they are wonderful for their decomposing abilities.

    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?
