Axolotls and company

I have purple apple snails (in their own tank not the axie tank) and they love grapes. I split the grape in half and drop one in every morning, by the time I come home from work the grape is just an empty shell. (they get lots of other foods too not just grapes).

The bristlenose that my aquarium sells are about an inch long.

are these too small to put into a tank with 4 adult axies???

    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?
