Wow what a difference with the gills in the last picture! Good job. :D
 
Great job! It is truly amazing how fast they grow, isn't it?!

I've had my two guys for a month and a half, and they've grown tremendously, it's insane!

It's even a bit sad that they grow that fast:) but I haven't noticed - until I looked at their first pics the other day. Shame they can't see the pics and reminisce with me lol

The last pic - and the first one - I wanna cry when I look at Axl' tiny skinny limbs! And now he's so round and smooth and happy:)

A new addition to the family - tiny little skinny Babe. Got him off Gumtree yesterday after seeing a pic of him on those nasty pebbles... He's only about 14-15cm long yet the owner insisted she had him for a year and he's 2 yrs old - I didn't want to argue but he looks a couple of months younger than my guys and they're less than a year old... He also has a bit of an issue with one leg, it's a little twisted, but that doesn't worry him a bit:) Anyways, resetting his tank with sand and safe hides today, hopefully he'll grow fast - he eats like a vacuum cleaner, looks very hungry to me. Named him Babe since he's tiny and pink and piggy-like. I'm in love all over again:)

Wow! What a difference. Their gills are absolutely lovely now. They're very lucky to have found their new home :)
 
Their gills are even fluffier now than in those pics:) and they're 23-24cm long now haha (measured them this morning since they were in a tub for a few minutes):))) twice the size in 4 month - they may very well grow into crocodiles at this rate!:))

Looks like I should feed them every second day now:)

My third baby - one month between the pics; all I am doing is feeding small portions twice a day and keeping him in clear water:))) very happy with his looks now!

bless your heart for rescuing them! all they needed was a proper home and fed!

I can't believe people treat their animals like that, aquatic or not.

    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?
