I didn’t buy it yet but it’s gonna be 4 months old so I was gonna keep it in a 10 gallon for 2 months and then I was gonna put it in with my other Axolotl. I will send you a pic of the axolotl I have though, if you want?
General rule of thumb is 20 gallon minimum for ONE axolotl. Each axolotl after that requires at least another 10 gallons up in size.
Since you mentioned a difference in age, please be aware that a size difference of approximately 2 inches or more is fairly likely to result in bullying, food hoarding, and potentially cannibalism, even among adults.
Additionally, he decision of putting two axolotls together is dependent on their individual personalities. Some axolotls hate being in a tank with others, some are fine with it. Even if it works out well, you should always have a backup solution if it doesn't work out for any reason.
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?
