Hi all!

We have had our axie for 2.5 weeks now and the site here has been SO helpful getting him happily settled.

Just wanted to share a picture of when we first got him from the breeder until now. I love how amazingly they can rejuvenate themselves!

Thank you!! Yup I found the same. Any question I looked up brought me here, so thought I'd better join than live vicariously through everyone else.

Awesome! I thought maybe a wild coloured would be boring but I love it!

It's not a real plant.. It's a matting which holds my Java Moss and other plants well and is super easy to clean as you just lift it up to siphon under it. I'm hoping the java Moss will mainly take over as it seems to be already. Don't know if the matting is totally pc but doesn't seem to bother Alpha (the axi) at all.

    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?
