Nice looking tiger salamanders. It looks like Ambystoma tigrinium (Eastern Tiger Salamander) to me.
The set-up looks great.

nice tigers, I have an eastern myself, and yours looks like one to me

I would however change the substrate to just plain soil or coco brick stuff, tigers love to borrow and make tunnels, those wood chips look a little dry and rough for a salamanders skin

    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?
