i have been having a reacurring problem with springtails. they show up multiply quickly and then i have to clean the cage. even if i do a steral cleaning they come back. does anyone know where they come from why they keep coming back and is their anyway to get rid of them for good.

Also are they of any threat to my fire salamander????

I actually plant them in my enclosures to assist in cycling organic material. They're no threat.
 
I think is a good thing.... I want to have more springtails as well...

    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?
