Hello. This newt in the picture died yesterday.
he began to lose weight around the end of July. during the progress of this condition he continued to eat, but he was not able to put on weight. last week he ate a big earthworm, then he went up on the stone and 4 days later died. it might be this condition?
I already had a nothophalmus who had the same disease, but then he has died as a coupling

    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?
