Rear end floating could be caused by impaction, digestive or gas problems. Before when I kept my larva in a container with water that is about 72-74 degrees, their rear end started floating. I tried to solve this by feeding them smaller and less foods (did not work) or by fridging them which works temporary.

Solution: Recently I put my larva in a 10 gallon that has a fan over it. The temperature stays at around 65 degrees. The larva hasn't been floating ever since. So it isn't the food that is the problem it was the temperature.

    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?
