It depends on what type of tank you are using them in. For a terrestrial tank a rinse and freeze is sufficient. Soaking the leaves overnight, then microwaving them for 30 seconds works well too.
For aquatic use the microwave method works well.
Boiling the leaves for five minutes is probably the best bet though.

For certain soft water caudates like amphiuma and sirens, yes.
For true newts, I personally do not know of any that would require leaf litter in the water.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
