Found this pic in a Japanese publication about albino animals. This Chinese giant salamander is said to be 150cm long.

Better late than never. That pic should be credited to the following Japanese magazine publication:

Aqua Magazine
December 1998 edition
Collection Series 6
Albino Collection
Fair Wind (publisher)
 
Just an observation: this animal doesnt have the characteristic pink eyes of an albino
 
Good point, Kaysie. Then it must be leucistic, right?
 
That is one ugly critter, looks like a low cornersofa to me

    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?
