Just keep in mind that axolotls do not like current at all. If you have an internal filter, you'll have to baffle the output in some way.

That would be a great choice. Make sure you take pics of your tank for all of us!!

But you still need a small amount of surface water turn over for gas release I dont think they would mind if i pointed the spray bar on to the top of the water in a fairly deep tank(40cm) just as long as i didnt have it gushing

It depends on how much current it makes. If their gills move in the current or their gills start to curl forward - there is too much current. You will have to try it and see.

    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?
