Can someone help me ID this worm? I wanted to use them in a worm bin but I wanted to know what kind it was first. It was sold as 'night crawler' I can get more/better pics if needed.

Without an idea of scale it's hard to tell, but the red colour makes me think it is dendrobaena/esenia rather than lumbricus.

They should be good for breeding - see here for worm farming thread.
 
Yeah size might help a bit lol here's a better pic

I couldn't find my tape measure at least this might help give you an idea. He's about 5 inches. I've read through the thread you posted very helpful information thanks. Just making sure these guys will be okay for breeding and feeding. =)

    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?
