Im doing a report on Terrestrial salamanders, and my "Behavior" and "Mating" sections are nearly empty. Could any of you guys shed some light on their basic behaviors and/or mating? and just a quick ?: Can I keep Firebellied Newts with my Firebellied Toads?

You can check in the articles section, but I don't have much info to give you specifically.

Don't trust anything the pet stores do or tell you, they're in it for money, not perfection.

Do you have any specific species in mind when you say "terrestrial"?

There's a fairly wide range of behavior and mating responses associated with salamanders so, as Garrison says, you really need to be more specific unless you want to write a large book.

No I don't really have one species in mind...
What about just a basic summary of all the terrestrial species, like "Live near ______, And are most often found ________" etc.
How about Marble Salamanders? Ya. I'll get mating info for Marble salamanders.

    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?
