Hey everyone, just joined the site. My critters and I are from ohio, usa. I have 5 axolotls, and that's it for amphibians, I do have two sulcata tortoises but they don't swim very well :D I'll put a picture of my axie tank up if my tech illiterate brain can manage it. It's a 90 gallon, canister filter, fan cooled (until I can find a chiller that costs less than my rent). Thanks for reading.

Hi, welcome to the site. :)
I also keep African tortoises, mine are 16yr old southern Leopards. I know they can swim quite well after they bulldozed our tranquil nature pond into a muddy swamp one afternoon. Its amazing how strong and destructive they can be, I bet the sulcatas are even worse.

Thanks for the welcome :) I love the leopards as well, (yours are very good looking) but I went with sulcatas because there is a very committed local breeder here. Mine are very young yet, the oldest is almost 5, but yes they are definitely capable of being very destructive. If it's green they are going to eat it, if it's brown they are going to dig it.

    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?
