Hell Everyone !

I am raising some axolotl's at the moment and I have a few of these certain color/albino that I have idea what they are called.
They all do not have a shiney ring around their eyes. Could they be Melanoids/melanistic ? Their body color is like a leucistic and some are light golden.
I have some pictures to show. All the pictures are from one Axolotl and not the others that i have that are like this.

Anyone has an idea what specific name this certain color is called ?

Sorry for not being more specific. Here is a picture of one of my golden Albino's for comparison.
As you can see he has shiney ring around his eyes/gill stalks.

Melanoid golden albino, albeit a dark one. You should name it Cheddar.

    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?
