E. platycephalus is said to be the most endangered newt in Europe and is highly protected. How did you manage to legally acquire any?

As for breeding setups, I only know of 3 or 4 people in Europe keeping platycephalus, and I have yet to hear of any breeding success.

If he was collected in the wild without proper permits, then no, you cannot legally keep him.

Wild Triturus, as far as I know, cannot be collected and kept as pets either in EU countries, only captive bred specimens. Maybe a European keeper could shed more light on that.

    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?
