The parameters of my tank are all fine, and my temperature remains between 21 and 18 degrees Celsius, however my PH is between 8 and 8.5. I know axies like hard water but is this a little too hard?

My axolotl (Luna) shows no sign of stress however the tip of her tail is very thin and translucent, I am not sure what's causing this but this is the only thing I can think of that could possibly be harming her, any ideas?

Fall axolotls do prefer hard water the pH is not an indication of the water hardness. a stable pH is more important than trying to get within the range of what is considered acceptable. if the pH was more extreme such as 9 or above or 6 and below it might be cause for concern.

    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?
