I've acquired 4 previously unknown newts and believe them to be Notophthalmus Viridescens Viridescens (Red Efts).
They've been captive kept on melanogaster fruit flies and 1mm meal worms for 6 months. History suggests they were possibly rescued from a pool around Buffalo, but could be from just about anywhere by the knowledge of the previous keeper (11yr old boy who received them from a visiting uncle).

Can anyone confirm my identification? Thanks! :)

Thanks! They're eating fruit flies with astounding alacrity.

    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?
