Hi team,
I've had my axolotl for about 4 months now and it has only just started getting warm here in Australia so I got a Hailea 130A. However, I currently have an internal filter but would be keen to swap it for a canister since I either need that or a pump for the chiller.
My tank is 64L or 16.5 gallons.
My question is does it matter what canister filter I get in terms of working well with the chiller? Or is the only requirement to work with the size of my tank?
Any recommendations on filters? Bonus points if you can recommend best filter media for axys as well.

Idk about this, but I commented to bump this back up to the top
 
The chillers should be rated for tank size. The chiller will have a gph or liter per hour pump recommendation on the statistics.

    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?
