Can you tell us more about her(age/size)? what is she fed and how often? and also her tank - size, frequency of water changes, what the ammonia/nitrite/nitrate readings are? Substrate(sand, gravel, etc.)? Temperature of your tank? A picture would also be helpful.

    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?
