I will need to start separating the babies in a few days. I read that different color should in their own since wild types are more aggressive. My question is should separate the white with pink eyes from the one with dark eyes? I would think that pink eyes do not see as well and a harder time hunting

I wouldn't worry too much when they've just hatched, but once they're a little bigger you could separate them by color, and once they're a bit bigger I would recommend separating them by size so the bigger ones don't bite the smaller ones.

    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?
