Hello! I'm a soon-to-be axolotl owner and I have a few questions about set up and care, etc. 1) I'm wondering what kind of live plants are easy to care for and safe for axolotl aquariums? 2) the axolotl will be kept in an un-airconditioned room and for most of the year that'll be no problem. However, we do get a few days every year where the room will reach temps of about 90 degrees F, sometimes slightly warmer. I'm not really wanting to spend a lot on an aquarium cooler, so I'm looking for any (possibly more affordable) suggestions on how to keep the tank cool and safe. Thanks!

    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?
