I am just wondering, can i put a fluro light on the lid of my tank. Since we have put the wooden lid on it, it seems very dark. Id like to be able to see Otto in his tank but am worried the light will warm the water.
 
Most people do have fluorescent lighting in the lid of the tank. Just be sure it's elecrically insulated from the interior of the tank. In general, it's best if the whole light system is enclosed (separate form the tank). A broken bulb falling into the tank could be disasterous.

    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?
