My cousin has an axolotl tank that had a severe algae infestation. He used some algaecide (before I could tell him not too) and now his axies have curled tails, are floating around, and seem to be on the verge of death. We took them out and placed them in a tub of dechlorinated water in the fridge. Is there anything that we can do for them?
 
Do you know what he used? Use the search function at the top of the page in the green bar to check the ingredients, this might give you a quicker answer , one of them might have been bad for the axolotl .Do please let us know what the algaecide was though.
I would do exactly what you are doing, do daily 100 % water changes.

    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?
