My little red-spotted newts LOVE blackworms...and the little pet shop where i used to get them from closed down. Does anybody know good suppliers of blackworms? (prefferably cheap...it's tough times these days)

easternaquatics.com/ Is where I get my blackworms. They are in eastern Pa. and local for me. It shouldn't be to bad to ship to Ohio.

I've gotten mine for many years from Aquatic Foods in California. If you only need a small quantity, you'd do best to find a pet shop locally that sells them. Try phoning some other independent pet shops within driving distance.

I just found a little pet shop who gets huge shipments of blackworms every week! Thanks for your help!

    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?
