I have two new axolotls who are quite unusual in colour, from searching the web it seems i have a yellow leusistic female but i am unsure on the males colour, im sure everyone would love to say they have a new or rare colour morph but i genuinely think he is! Im not sure wether he would be classed as an axanthic albino, axanthic melanoid or albino melanoid? any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Hard to tell from these pictures. I have an axanthic albino and a melanoid albino

    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?
