I received some T.shanjing from Uwe towards the end of last year. I keep them on peat free muti purpose compost, 50-50 with coco fibre. Water dish and moss at the damp end with a cork bark stack that has damp and drier areas. I keep them in a realy useful tub that is 800mm long, i use these for most of my newts as the length helps to keep one end drier than the other. Plenty of ventilation is cut into the lid and covered with gauze. They are eating lesser waxworms, small earthworms, live bloodworm and 1st crickets dusted with nutrabol. They are kept at room temperature and are growing well.

    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?
