They are some kind of compost worm (Eisenia or Dendrobena). Large caudates should like to eat them whole. If you cut these worms, they (may) have a foul smell, and some caudates may reject them. These worms are easy to grow yourself (and then you can get very small ones).

they look like redworms. my newts wont take reds, as they smell bad and are extremely active when being eaten.

    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?
