Question: Would this be a good pellet for my axies?

Hello, I'm having lots of problems with keeping a worm farm for my axies, I'll keep trying but in the meanwhile I'm feeding my Axolotls some raw beef heart, but I can see they have some trouble digesting it.

As I live in Argentina, I can't get any frozen bloodworm cubes or soft moist salmon pellets (they don't sell them anywhere) So I'm trying to look for some sinking pellets to feed as staple food for my little ones until the worm farm is ready, these are the ones I find in my country:

CARNIVORE
Sinking Carnivore Pellets | Hikari Sales USA

Are those good enough for Axies? Which one of those are the best?

I'd say yes but just for right now if you are noticing your axie having issues. You can buy sinking pellets or even freeze dried blood worms online if there not sold by you. Keep trying the worm farm, wish you luck!

I find that axolotls are voracious predators that will eat almost anything they can fit in their mouth. If they are pesticide free, You can feed almost any appropriately sized insect without a stinger. Also go and flip some rocks or dig some earthworms.

    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?
