Well Aquila looks to be the one who is going to cause the most concern. Appetite is fine but there is definite fungal infection on the gills. I wouldnt do a salt bath on the first day he/she arrived from the pet shop. However now he/she is in her first.
I must point out that this is not like the cotton ball fluffy type that i have seen before. It looks a lot like actual white spot on the gill stem not the filaments. there is however some white gungey fungus streaking off the gills. Poor little mite.
Any ideas on this white spot?

i dont see any white spots to be honest
 
I think I see where the gill was bitten..like a raw end maybe ?..I don't see any fungus , but I am a novice to these things .
Very pretty little axololt ..love the colouration.
 
yep fungus has come off with the salt bath, you can see white marks on the gill stems, but i am thinking this could be new skin that is covering the wound, Deo who is the one who had both back legs bitten off has the same skin colouration over the stumps.

    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?
