Definitely Ambystoma. Necturus don't really live in ponds, they're usually in rivers, streams, and larger lakes. The eggs would be under rocks in a big cluster of individual eggs, usually guarded by the mother.
Also agree they're ambystomatids. Head is way too broad for Necturus. I have some baby Necturus cf beyeri right now I'm rearing. Might be able to take a pic so you can see comparison.
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?
