I finally found a 4 ft 55-gal tank for under $50 last month. I set it up, it is almost done cycling, about a week to go. I think my breeding pair of Axolotls will be VERY happy.
I have narrow-leaved java ferns in there. Not so much now, but in 2 months there will be a whole forest in there. I have some java moss as well, with some guppy grass floating on the surface. All plants and rocks in there are from my Noto tank, so cycling is probably already done. I'll give it an extra week or two, just to be safe.

    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?
