It looks wonderful. I imagine your newts are incredibly happy in there.
 
Thanks:)

I added some plants in the water and on land. Got some more light and a background.

They got so much more active when a put in the new light, maybe they only are a little bit hungry:) I try not to feed them too much.

    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?
