I saw someone selling this pretty little guys and was curious what kind they were. Maybe non albino gold if that's a thing??

It also crossed my mind that they might be larvae from a non-neotenic salamander species that they are selling as "axolotls." If you recognize the color or the species let me know! I would really like one if they are indeed axolotls.
Thanks :D

Those are tiger salamander larvae, not axolotls.
 
Thank you Auntie Jude! I was afraid of that but I hoped anyway :/
I will let them know to change the name of their ad so they don't mislead others
Thank you again for your help

    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?
