I'd be worried about the size of some of your pebbles. If you use stones, they need to be much bigger than your axolotls head. You'd be amazed at the size of rocks they can swallow! They're also difficult to clean amongst. They'll hide a lot of waste, which can mess with your water quality. Most people here recommend sand as a substrate.
 
Okay. My axolotl will be small for quite some time yet. When it gets biger I'll maybe change it to sand

    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?
