Discoloration on newts

I was wondering if discoloration of skin was common among newts because all of a sudden my newt has like a dimly white strip down the middle of his tail could this be dangerous ?
 
A white stripe along the tail in alot of newt species usually means its a male and the male is entering or has already entered breeding condition. Unless you can see the skin starting to seperate or slough off from the tail, I think your newt is ok and is a breeding male. You've posted some questions on here before Galeoto, thought of becoming a member yet??

    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?
