Hi Miss Bikealot,

Can you post a picture of the tumor? You can search this forum to see what tumor-like growths others have had and how that worked out for them; you could also take Moomin to a vet.

Here are a few threads I found when searching the axolotl forum for the word "tumor" (I've only listed threads with photos) (so be forewarned):

You could also try searching for lump or bump.

Good luck to you,

    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?
