How's this for substrate?

Ok, finally found a combination that I am hoping will work, got some cypress mulch and mixed it with a bag of top soil (ingredients: reed sedge peat, 80% and sand, 20%), then put it in the oven at 150 degrees for an hour for good measure, then finally transferred to the sally home at last. "Fatboy" (who I recently discovered is a girl, but still call her that, heh heh) has not burrowed in it yet, although it has only been 24 hours and she just shedded a couple hours ago. Speaking of that also, have you noticed changes in behavior before/during/after your tiger salamander sheds?
Thanks again everyone for all the help! I love this forum.

    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?
