Freeze dried?

Will C. orientalis eat freeze dried tubifex worms or bloodworms? I'm having difficulty finding someone to supply live food. Should I get frozen or keep the freeze dried till I find live?

I feed mine tubifex worms but most of the time I put a bundle of them up to its snout so it can smell it and then it strikes. I think that as long as it smells the food it will eat it.

I think frozen bloodworms are better than dried food (both in acceptance by the animals and in nutrition).

You DO have live bait shops in Summerville, SC. I just checked on google. They should be able to sell you earthworms, or you can find them outdoors.

    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?
