Hello all, my name is George and I'm an axolotloholic... oh, wrong group :D. I've actually been lingering around for a couple weeks now reading up on axolotl's. My 4 year old son wants one so I had to learn some more about them before we jump in. We look forward to owning some soon and my guess would be, for many years to come. We are not new to wet pets. We currently have about 500 gallons of aquariums in approx. 20 tanks (my wife is very understanding of my obsessive compulsive ways) mostly stocked with livebearers and 40-45 crayfish. I love the Cherax sp. crayfish so it comprises about 80% of our collection. The other 20% are locally caught or US natives. Enough about me... glad to be here with you all.
 
Welcome! I'm glad you researching before you get your pet. (something a lot people don't do)

Check out: http://www.axolotl.org/ for some of the best info on Axolotls.

I hope you enjoy your pets. If you have any questions feel free to ask them on this forum.

Actually, that's how I found this site... through axolotl.org. Thanks for the welcome.
 
Welcome George, you will notice real quick that most of us here have these same so called obsessive complusive ways you speak of. :D I for one am guilty of it.:cool:
 
Welcome, George and family! Wow, a crayfish aficionado. That may be even more obscure than a caudate aficionado. Perhaps those of us with animal hobbies should form a support group for our long-suffering significant others.

    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?
