Absolutely beautiful axolotls you have there. :happy:
I'm afraid I'm no good with axolotl colour variants, but I know there are some members of this forum who are. Hopefully they'll see this thread.
I believe you're correct with the first picture. Tuco looks female to me. At the end of this webpage there are pictures you can compare her to if you'd like to: Axolotls - Biology

Thanks. I can't wait till they're a little bigger. I wish I had a better camea, the one "mystery" phenotype is driving me nuts. I'm new to axolotls, so I don't know if it's just a funny wild-type or a melanoid. I didn't think a melanoid was possible from the parents genetics, but who knows.
I don't suppose you've already checked out: Axolotls - Genetics and Colour ?
I'm not smart enough to understand it
But maybe you'll get something out of it!

Thanks. I just moved them into a planted 10 gallon I'm using as my axie nursery. They seem very happy but I have a hell of a hard time finding them now.
The first set of pictures are my gfp melanoid Tuco and gfp gold albino Midas.
The babies are named Cashew, Wally, and Mac after nuts because they are tiny like peanuts.

Shane douglas:with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??+1

Thorninmyside: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+1

Clareclare: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?+1
