Little mouths to feed! Daphnia in Australia?

Hi,
My axies have bred again and I would like to try a few food sources this time, last time I feed them solely BBS to begin with and found it extremely time consuming.

Does anyone living in Queensland or Northern NSW know where I can get some Daphnia?

Also, can I feed them infusoria? because I know I can get some through Pieces, or are they too small?

Thanks,
Belinda
 
infusoria doesn't isnt big enough to make notable movements, this is a food for very little fry, axie's aren't that small.....you "could" give it a try tho...
 
Can you get blackworms? Larvae can be weaned to chopped blackworms at a couple of weeks old. Until then, you may just have to stick with the BBS.
 
try micro worms or white worms i think it was, but ur larva need te be alittle bigger i think. check the axolotl.org web site.

    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?
