Looks like a male N. v. piaropicola to me.

Just so you know, this should NOT be kept with a firebelly newt in the same tank. It can lead to disastrous ends. http://www.caudata.org/cc/articles/Mixing_disasters.shtml
If this guy and the firebelly are the same size and have been together for some time, I would not predict any dire immediate problems. Keeping them separately may be slightly better for both, but they'll probably continue to be OK. And I would certainly not recommend mixing the two if they weren't already together - the disease issues are serious.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
