I have started the tank for Swarley! I have had very many technical difficulties, but it's coming along. I'm still working on how the decorations will be, and I don't like that the center hide is behind the plants. I'm getting another teacup planter for the other side and eventually some real plants.

the mug is a great idea! Looks like a great setup :)
 
buen tabajo, es un gran espacio para que tus ajolotes esten en pleno desarrollo, goog job, its a great place for the correct development of your axolotls
 
thats cute! is that a real gourd in there?
 
It's a ceramic tealight holder in the shape of a gourd, one of the few things that really worked in the water. I have a few ceramic fruit that were supposed to go with it, but they float lol. Here's some more pictures of Swarley enjoying her new tank and the development of the decorations.

Thanks! She's been loving the new tank. I've never seen her more happy and active.
 
Looks great! Just a heads up...the sand in some of the deeper spots might be deep enough to develop gas pockets...either stir it occasionally or reduce the depth a bit.
 
Thats a cute tank theme, reminds me of alice in wonderland!

Thanks!

I've been keeping an eye on it. Usually I give it a stir when I work on the water, and same goes for the smaller axolotls' tank. She moves it around a lot herself as well. She's a landscaper! lol

    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?
