The only thing you can do is add many hiding places and plants/rocks/wood to block the view as much as possible. If that doesn´t work and they keep fighting you´re going to have to separate them. This species is highly territorial and highly agressive. Fights can result in the death of one animal.
If dividing and creating more territory like Rodrigo suggests doesn't work you are going to have to separate the animals. Even if they aren't causing serious injury the dominant animal can easily stress the little one out by being threatening and chasing the submissive animal. Eventually the submissive animal will die from a stress related complication such as disease.
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?
