Well as the title says. I took a picture of both of them. Apparently a curled tail means the axolotl is stressed? Can someone confirm if mine are stressed?

They look fine to me. When they are stressed the very tip of their tail curls around into a little hook
 
They look fine to me as well. Like mandy said it could be a sign of stress if the tip of the tail is curled. If you are worried check the water pararmeters and the temp if both are ok then all should be ok......Are they eating ok???
 
All is good then. Axies like making us humans worry and they do is so well:D

    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?
