Why are you keeping the golden in the mini box? You said something about going away for the weekend, and that he has his own container otherwise, but I don't follow why the box, and not his own container.

When he is in his shoebox sized tub, I change his water every day because it has no filtration. But I often leave for the entire weekend and can't change his water, so I have this box that hangs in the main tank and has lots of little holes to allow clean water from the tank to circulate inside of it. He's almost too big for it, however. He grew an inch in 2 weeks!
So I'm hoping that in a month's time I can add him to the tank, since he's growing so quickly!
I know this thread is rather old, but I am hoping to get some info on the set up?!?!
- Did you use the silica sand for a thin layer, the dirt for a thin layer, and another silica sand layer on top?
- What is the mineralized soil + red clay for? Where do you purchase it? What is the ratio?
- How has the tank held up over time?
- The flowing box, is that like a breeder box? Did you make that yourself or is that another DIY? Where do you purchase those? (I need something like that too)
The photos are amazing with the step by step walkthru. Amazing job!
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?
