The picture isn't clear, could they be detritus worms or planaria?

i don’t think it’s either of them. they aren’t in the water only on the part of filter that isn’t in the water, a couple fell in the water and they jumped! they also seem to be too small to be either of those

They’re springtails. You must have something bioactive near. Personally, I’d leave them if they are there, they have a job to do!

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
