rich, axie newbie, help please :)
Hi guys, under miss informed info, from the aquatic store where i bought my axie, i purchesd him/her with some goldfish, (as you all know). They have eaten hill gills :mad:, so i have removed them from the tank (once informe by you guys), but they are now really short and was woundering how long it will take for them to grow back?

I feel so terrible as he depends on me for everything, and due to me he was harmed :(, just hope he gets his gill back. By the way i finnaly named him Yu-Ghi as in Yu-Ghi-Oh as his two lower gills bend downards tlike Yu-Ghi-Ohs dids in the artoon lol :), Thus why i feel so bad about his gills as they are my Favorite bit about him/her
 
They will take a while, it depends on the axie really, anywhere from weeks to months.
 
its just under 7' .....
 
As long as the goldfish are gone, and you keep him cool, clean, and well-fed, they should grow back just fine. But it will take time.
 
One of my juveniles ( about the same size as your are) received a vicious gill trim a couple of months ago, but now they have grown back...just a little crooked.
 
:) thats kwl, i love him for his crooked gills so a few more bends will make me happy lol

    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?
