We have 4 axies about 9 months old In a 120 gallon tank together. They’ve been in their tank for about a month now. We closely monitored them for any nipping or fighting but there hasn’t been any. This morning I woke up to one of the lotls with major leg injuries. I’m not sure if it’s scrapes or bites but the skin on his front legs is peeling off. He has all his toes and bones are still there but it’s pretty bad. What should I do to help him get through the healing process? I’ve already separated him. Tea baths maybe?

    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?
