Picture is too small and we can't say for sure.

I thought duckweed too, but you really can't tell.
Hi
Itlooks like Azolla Filiculoides, Water Fern, a native of North America, and can be quite invasive, it goes red in the autumn and tend to disappear a little in the coldest weather and come back with a vengeance in the spring
Hope this helps

I would guess a Salvinia species, but again, I'd need a closer shot to tell for sure.

though this thread a tad older, it's azolla though and though
That is definately Azolla, I have a lot of it...
edit:
@Azhael: I think you see leaves in it because they're to much of them in that tank, on top of eachother and stuff?
Soleirolia isn't an aquatic plant, we use it as ground cover in gardens.
I'm beginning to doubt it to...but still Azolla really looks like that when it's so packed together...otherwise it can be some kind of Salvina?
A better picture would make it a lot easier.

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
