They are between 9 and 13 centimeters long and are thin and have no legs. I separated them but I think I over fed them because the vomited what I gave them for the last two days.

They had only been fed scant bloodworms up to the time I got them. They liked the earthworm pieces and fly larvae that I gave them right away. But they wouldn’t take the soft pellets at all.

What is the best way to introduce new foods and beef them up? They apparently ate more than they should have. How do I know the right amount?

    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?
