My the paddletail's skin seems to be lightening in color a bit, just wondering what the causation might be or that, he still seems to do the usual sleep, wake up, explore, sleep, cycle.

The tank has been kept in the 60s.

He's most likely shedding his skin. If he's active and healthy I'd say that's you best bet.

    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?
