My Axolotl was the spawn of an Leucistic male and either a Golden Albino or Melanoid female. (There was a variety in the tank and it was awhile ago so not 100% sure)

Trying to establish what breed my Axi has come out as. He seems to be a wild type yet he is very light in colour, the front of his gills are very shiny and reflective almost golden which is why I believe he was from the Golden Albino who hold the iridophores. I know they change colour as they mature so perhaps he will just turn darker as he progresses.

Let me know your thoughts!

Yes, a pretty wildtype with plenty of iridophores. Nice!

    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?
