I went to Scandinavia for three weeks, and along the way I stopped by a lake and found a spider shaped root that was nicely preserved. It was perfect for my vivarium,so I took it back home. Now I want to grow moss all over it. Can anyone help? Also, does anyone have any suggestions for the type of moss to grow on it?

Will it be under water or on land? Java moss is probably your best choice and it will grow underwater and on land but when growing emerged it requires very high humidity.

All of the log will be on the land, although one small branch will be in the water.

    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?
