Hi there, I have been on a search for Pool Filter sand for the last week for my axolotl.. Finally found some, went and picked it up. When I got home I saw it was actually recycled glass for pool filters, rather than sand. I am extremely hesitant to put this in my tank. Please just confirm with me if I am right here, that I should return it, or has anyone tried this in any kind of tank?
 
I have never seen recycled glass sand so I would say yes to return it.

I have ground pumice sand in 1 tanks, ground garnet in another and fine coal slag as well.

play sand like for sand boxes is also safe just need a ton of rinsing

    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?
