my stewy was swollen in the tummy, but after reading a few things on this site, i took him out of the tank and put ice in the water and he's pooed 7 stones so far and is looking better! I think i need to use sand instead of stones, and i need to keep the tank cooler! thank you so much for what i've learned! and for saving stewy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
yay!! good for you jasmine... lets hope he keeps going in the right direction
 
Well done jasmine, and stewy!

Expect to see more gravel come out though, I had my axie in a tank with gravel for about a month, since she'd been out of that tank she'd passed over 20 pieces of gravel - i've lost count!

She's doing much better now, though.
 
my god!!! he's passed 23 stones in two days! he looks so much better, i've returned him to his tank that now has sand...

Expect to see the occasional stone appear for the next six months or so.

Some gravel manages to sit in their gut for ages.

Its good to hear stuey is better. All the best for the future.
 
These are the kind of comments that warm my heart and show that this site has a worthwhile mission. Thanks for posting, Jasmine, and good luck with stewy!
 
Jennifer, maybe you could make an article with good stories in addition to the article with horror stories.
 
exactly. this site has made me learn so much. everyone who wishes to learn about the axolotl or even decides owning one should come here because there is so much stuff that is not mentioned in books that is critical to an axoltols health.

    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?
