Hello, I became a mother to 2 Axolotls in April. I have learned so much in this forum. Does anyone have a suggestion for pellets that won’t dirty the water too much? I have been feeding earthworms but thought pellets might be a nice change for them.
 
Welcome! All the pellets (and food in general) will pollute, so the best option is to put aside 10-20 mins to observe feeding and remove any uneaten food. Worms are nutritionally better than pellets anyways so it is better to stick to them. Once I week I pull Bucky out into a tub while I do a water change, and I feed him the messy food- bloodworms and pellets- so they don't pollute his tank water.

    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?
