One of my babies "ribbed" me yesterday when i was moving him to a temporary tank whilst cleaning his home out .... it didn't hurt but it itched like hell for hours afterwards , i've had the adults for years and the juveniles are usually very placid too ! i think i'll be using a net from now on though hehe.

    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?
