It's certainly a good idea to learn about keeping them alive and healthy before you think about breeding. Have you found this caresheet:
http://www.caudata.org/cc/species/Cynops/C_orientalis.shtml
Some petshops call other species "firebellies" so if the photos here don't look like your newt, check out the other photos and caresheets on the site.

Do you have any specific questions?

    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?
