Hello all, new to the forum. I am a 19 year old Biology student from Turkey.
One of the main reasons I joined was to get some insight about keeping newts and salamanders. I am planning on getting a trio (1 male 2 female) Lissotriton vulgaris. What would be the ideal enclosure for them ? Was planning on opening ventilation holes to my 60x40x20h cm locked plastic bin for them. What should the inside be like ? Is the size good ? Thanks in advance !

    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?
