That's a very pretty axolotl.

Nice setup and I love that vase ornament. One of my tanks has some very similar vase ornaments, these make great hides, and my axolotls can't get enough of them.

Welcome to the site!

Hey there,
I think you did outdo the other cute picture. So gorgeous!
I am new here too and got our first axolotl 2 months ago.
They are so much fun aren't they? Enjoy.
Cheers,
Amy

Hi Amy :happy: Thanks.I think I have just worked out from information here,that my axolotl might be a girl.:love: (She looks like the female cloacal photo).No wonder she's so cute.I have to think of a name now.I'm learning new things everytime I come here.

    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?
