Methylene blue is axolotl safe and will treat both kinds of parasites.
 
dannell - I did a google search for it and found several documents.

Previously, trichlorfon (commercially sold as Masoten or Dylox) was widely used for control of clam shrimp, but is not registered for use in fish culture ponds. Other studies show that trichlorfon treatment may be detrimental to zooplankton and invertebrates.

this page has a toxicity study on aquatic organisms for trichlorfon.

    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?
