Question: Sand

I would shy away from using colored sand... anything artificially colored runs the risk of leeching chemicals or dyes into the water. If it says it's safe I suppose you could, but I personally wouldn't risk it.
 
For anyone who is looking for a brighter sand. I have been using the crayola coloured sand for a few months now with no problems. It's aquarium safe and looks awesome. I switched after a bad batch of playsand. It's much finer than regular play sand too, and you can even see the axie footprints in it!

    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?
