Hi, I set the ponds up for newts. The main variety are alpine newts, marbled newts, but some local common newts seem to have arrived and frogs. I usually take the frogs to a local pond ,as I think they would eat any baby newts.

Are you not fencing it to keep native species out and your captive species in?

    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?
