After asking & gaining lots of great advice on here & learning on the hop 0.0 - I've redone the tank with much less sand, more space for swimming & more natural rock hides.

I'm going to be setting up an AquaOne AR620 as his next tank & will be setting it up using the walstad concept as the overall long term plan :) hopefully it'll be a few weeks until he's big enough for the new tank - then it will be ready :D

Some pics under low light of new tank set up, end views & of course some of the little one posing :)

Great to hear you're using the forum to its full potential, as are other users. The set up looks great
 
I like how you made the cave for your little axie. He will definitely appreciate it!
 
Hmmm the cave wasn't big enough & the little one didn't seem to like the new layout preferring the plants - he's never been big on the hides I have provided & I've been looking for something that would suit his small (temp) tank...
Today I stole another hide from my Betta that no longer needed it :) it's been a great success & I'll post more pics tomorrow :) can't resist taking pics of my little one!

I found a cool 1.5w LED desk lamp today :) it's not too bright to annoy the little one - but it makes finding him easier ;)

Placed behind the plain blue backed tank it makes for some cool night lighting :)

This is the 'worm pit' sloped hills either side keep the worms bunching in the corner & they don't seem to want to leave ;) makes for a walk thru munch zone lol

    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?
