I have been communicating with Laura Muzinic the Associate Director of the Ambystoma Genetic Stock Center at the University of Kentucky and she mentioned that they have transgenic axxies that glow red as well as the green ones. Has anyone ever seen any of the red glowing ones?
 
Yes, but from what I've heard it will be quite a while until they are available to the public.
 
Just got told by Univ of Kentucky that it was a German researcher that developed them but they can only sell them to genetic research labs. Dang! Anyone got a contact at a genetic research lab? hehe
 
Speaking of which, any word on when their GFP cousins (or the little flamethrowers themselves :D) will be coming to Australia?
 
No news on them yet. I emailed the researcher that created them but no reply. :(

    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?
