ELODEA...I know the response you all are wanting to give...However, as I stated a few times, Elodea is not offered for sale where I live. We have Java Fern, Java Moss, various Sword Plants, Anacharis, Water Lily, Moneywart, and a couple of others now and then. Since Elodea is not an option, which of these is the best to include in the breeding tank?
Please respond with the best of the choices in bold face only, as these are the only one's available to me.
Thank you all in advance!

Anacharis is the same thing as Elodea. They're both Elgeria species (normally E. densa). Just two different names for the same plant.

I feel a little silly...None-the-less, thanks a lot!

    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?
