Hello fellow enthusiasts,
Today I noticed some odd white dots on my driftwood in my 40 g. I have 2 Java ferns and 1 big male leucustic axie. I also noticed some sort of injury or what appears to be different textured membrane with capillaries throughout. Please see the first photo regarding the driftwood and the second regarding my axie.

I would venture to say that the white spots on your driftwood look like a type of fungus. And the mark on your axolotl looks like a scuff or scratch. It should heal fine. Keep up on water changes. :)

    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?
