Doubt it's a Cynops species, is it native to where you are or no?
No, its not native to the UK. You're right about it not being Cynops.

Is it a new addition, or something you have already had?
I got it about four months ago.
It looks like a slightly peculiar looking Tylototriton verrucosus :errr:
He he, you're spot on, he got his gills bitten off on one side when hen he was small and they never grew back. He reminded me of a Pachytriton.

First thing i thought was Pachytriton as well, second thought was T. verrucosus.

I thought it was a Tylototriton due to your kept species list, but I over thought it and thought it was something new

It's a Tylototriton for sure. When I raised Tyototriton verrucosus and shanjing they would absorb 3 of their gills and leave the other 3 for later on. I'd say it's a T. verrucosus.
He reminds me of someone with a modern cut where you shave one side of your head and have long hair growing out of the other.
Yes, It's even still visible on some of my adults as tiny white dots along their sides.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
