Is anyone in the U.S. working on breeding these now that the interstate ban is over? I am still a bit apprehensive to put my adults together.
 
There are a few breeders, but not many. I can think of 5 or 6 who breed some kind of fire salamander on a regular basis. If you're looking for specific type, you might have a problem - the main types available in the US are Salamandra s. gallaica, S. s. salamandra and S. s. terrestris. From speaking with others I can tell you that prices have risen since the interstate ban was invalidated. I personally will have some S. s. s. for sale in a month or two.

    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?
