Finally i was able to find some healthy P.waltl in a local fish store , They are 3 , 2 are 12cm and 1 is 6 cm, the bigger two are in a 80cm X 58X 42 vivarium 130 liter (inch 31 X 23 X 15 34 gallon) , i keep the small one alone in a large fauna box with many plants.
I must say that Pleurodeles are so fun , they are active , big , hardy and "fierce" , not the most colorful species but very interesting and fun to keep and watch.
now the pics

Great pics and video. They seem very interested in the camera. Now I understand why they are so popular.
 
Hey! Good choice of species! I have 4 of these and LOVE them - they 'beg' for food when they see any face looking over the top of the tank and they are very interested in what goes on close to the tank.

Yes, not the most beautiful species, but they make up for that with lots of character!
 
What a bunch of cuties! They are begging fools, I love it. Thanks for the shots/video.

    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?
