I finished my last survey of the season this morning, barring the odd day out turning over logs. Sadly somewhat disappointing but I did manage to get some photos of many Triturus cristatus larvae and a particularly nice colured juvenile Lissotriton vulgaris. Some photos of the pond for good measure. I've done 6 visits here this year and the population is very healthy. It has however ruined my stats as somehow I have managed a grand total of zero recaptures thus making a population index void, bah!

    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?
