If you want to keep the eggs and raise the larvae, then you can remove some of them. I don't recommend trying to remove and raise all of them. Maybe a few, like 20. Most people will just leave the eggs in the adult tank and let nature take its course (the adults eat the eggs/larvae). Since P. waltl are prolific breeders, there's no harm in this.

    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?
