Aquatic plants

hey,

I have a 10 gall aquatic newt tank. I would love to put some aquatic plants in it. Any suggestions? I would like them to be fairly tall and not make to much mess. Thanks a lot

Elodea (Anacharis) is a great choice. There are several varieties, so you might want to look them up for add't info. via Internet. Just know one thing - they are considered an invasive species (not all) and should not be released in any of your local water systems.

Bacopa (moneri ?) is another choice. Although they do get "leggy" pretty quick. My C.o. female preferred them to the elodea for egg laying.

You might want to consider some floating plants also.

    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?
