I don't think adorable covers this axie. Possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen. I want one just like her right now. I already wanted to add a golden albino and a leucistic with blue eyes to my life, but now I must have one that looks like Spinner. SO sweet!!! Looks like she could eat that tiny tankmate for a snack though. Better watch out for nips!

Spinner is a wild type dwarf axolotl but she's not the common wild types I've seen in most of my clutches, she has very long fluffy gills, is black specked with golden through out with some white and her gill branches are golden, it's also not easy to tell from the pic but her gill feathers are two tone in color with frosted like tips.

Just hanging out.

    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?
