Is it like furry little white balls or just the skin colour changed?

Phew!
Minor colour changes in the skin i wouldn't worry about so much... its when the cotton like substance starts growing that i would worry, keep your eye on the colour change if it appears too severe i would check all water conditions. Hope that helps

    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?
