Two things..

1) In my worm tank, apparently when I left my parents to feed my tiger salamander larvae, when they cut up a worm, the other half died.. I wasn´t aware of it so now there are gnats on the worm, I don´t know what to do about them..

2) In the past week my tiger larvae has shed at least twice, should I be worried, and instead of coming off like at once in a tube, it came out in like shreds (unless he tore it apart), so should I be worried and if so what should i do about it?

Thanks in advance.

Take out the dead worm and throw it away.

Excessive shedding can be a sign of poor environment. Too wet, too hot, etc.
 
Hes still in his larvae stage.. its not too wet xD maybe too warm, ill turn on the fan and keep that on for a few days, it usually lowers the room temp to 67

    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?
