Wow! There are thousand of baby school prawns in the canal outside where I live. I go down with my little net and catch one or two for my axolotl Moreton. He devours them so quickly. I haven't had any luck finding garden worms lately as it has been too cold so these add a bit of variety to his diet. :D

My axolotls love a bit of prawn. Just be careful with catching them from the wild. You don't want to give your axie any nasty tummy upset or worse.

    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?
