My axolotl is rapidly losing his gills, in the span of three days he lost them entirely. How can i help fix this issue? It seesms to have started when I bought some moss for his tank, i think he might be having a bad reaction

Hello,

Not much to go with from your post additional information such as:

Water parameters
Ph
Ammonia
Nitrates
Nitrites
Temperateure
Filtration used

Any of the above not being in the normal can cause your issue. Having bad reaction to moss is highly unlikely.

    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?
