I’ve been willing my Tylototriton shanjing or light variant verrucosus or whatever they are to lay eggs for weeks now. I’ve been looking daily on the land area with no luck. Needless to say I’ve now found eggs littered all over the tank in the water, on the glass,filter, aquatic moss, (everywhere except, where I wanted them to be for collecting) I have fished out around 35 as they are near impossible to reach. I believe they have been laying today.
I’ll be posting some more details in the next few days ,
I’m very happy now 3 species of 5 I’ve had ambitions to breed ,more pictures to follow

Sweet, keep me posted. I'm trying to secure individuals from different lines for a future breeding project. I pay premium. I will have bumble bee toads in the next 30 days if you are interested in trading as well. I've talked to a few folks and they have either flaked or aren't that interested in moving juveniles.
 
If you ever consider selling your adults I'd be interested as well.

    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?
