What air pumps do you guys use if any?
 
I prefer airpumps by a german manufacturer "Schego" but I don't know if they are available in the UK. Very reliable over a long time and very silent in my opinion.
 
Mark do you use this instead of a filter or aswell as?
What size tanks do u use it in?
cheers

Hi, the bulk of my tanks are unfiltered. I have a 4ft glass tank which uses an internal submersible filter but the rest are as per this post: http://www.caudata.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49415 with just a line for aeration. 10 tanks run off the one air pump. For small tanks many keepers use air driven sponge or corner filters. For large set-ups you may require mechanical filtration.
 
I recommend Rena air pumps. These are the quietest I have ever tried. Also, it is fairly easy to find parts for them, so they should last practically forever.

    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?
