I think 10gallons are aproximately 38 L, which is one of the standard sizes commercial aquariums are usually offered. Bare in mind that this species can be apropiately housed in plastic tubs too, which is far cheaper (but not as aesthetic).
Also, although that size is apropriate i would say it´s always better to try and provide extra space, when it´s possible of course.

    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?
