Can Axis live out of the water? Just curious. And I want to get an algae eater, will Mr.Bigglseworth eat him? Thanks.
 
Axolotls are purely aquatic animals. They should never be removed from the tank unless you want to move them. Keeping them out of the water is cruel.

Putting an algae eater in the tank is a very bad idea. Most (if not all) algae eaters have spikes in their spine or dorsal fin. An axie will most likely try to eat the fish, and thus piercing himself witht he spine. Not only does this hurt and injure your axie, but they are a pain to remove as well.
Besides that problem, the can also nibble on your axie.
 
Small snails such as ramshorns, pond snails, Malaysian trumpet snails, or nerites are a better choice for algae detail.

    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?
