I'm delighted to say my T Verrucosus have begun laying eggs for the first time. I've been removing the eggs and plan to raise them in tubs with pond life and micro worms as initial foods. However I missed a number of eggs and there are now larvae in the adult's tank. The tank is planted although as it's fairly new it's not yet as densely grown-in as I'd like. What are the chances of these larvae surviving alongside the adults? I know some species will not eat their larvae and have been watching closely, not seen any being hunted as yet.....
 
Congratulations :D

I have not had any luck with raising larvae in with the adults, so I tended to remove them if I was quick enough.
 
Thanks, very exciting...!!! Ok, I'll get the net out and try and remove them.

    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?
