Attached are the new Tylototritons I've received. Last I recalled they were only two species of tylototriton which looked like this, but I've been out of the "game" for ages and am aware that recent phylogenetic changes make this ID thing significantly harder.

Also, post ID, would there be any specific tips for caring for this particular species? For example, land to water ratios seem very unclear to me at this point as do temperature ranges.

    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?
