Axolotl Eggs-Freshwater or Saltwater?

[looie_808]

Hi guys and gals.

I have a question regarding Axolotl eggs. Should I keep them in freshwater or saltwater after they have beaned and even once they have hatched. I'm finding conflicting information online. One source of information tells me to keep them in 400 TDS(.40ppm) of saltwater but I've also heard that saltwater will kill Axolotl hatchlings. I understand Axolotls are native to brackish water and I keep my Axolotl tanks in 5% salinity with no issues but this is my first time with eggs and I want to make sure they are healthy with the best shot at a long happy life.

Any advice on this topic or general advice about raising them from eggs is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Cheers.

there was an interesting article where eggs are hatched using different levels of salt, it was found that for best results 1g - 2g per litre was ideal with most hatched and least deformity's.
