I have just added a female to my tank which is already inhabited by a male. If they should happen to breed, how long can the eggs stay in the tank safely as a rearing tank may not be immediately available?
 
I take them out soon as I find them (not sure if that's recommended or not). Mine will start eating it near enough soon as it's laid!

You could just put it in a bucket, can be a couple of weeks before it starts to hatch :)
 
Mine did not eat any of the eggs at all.

    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?
