I don't really know if he is counted as a big one or not. I would love to breed fires, so if anyone has good advices I would love to hear. :p:p
He is a male. He has few yellow markings on him, but his funny personality and bulky size makes it all up:wacko:

It's a nice salamander, but mixing species together in the same tub like that is very risky, especially with wild caught ones like those. Animals from different areas/countries can carry pathogens that can be fatal to other unrelated species.

Ok is it just me or does the yellow one look a lot like a tiger salamander?

You have four animals here what do you think each of them is?

    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?
