Here's a shot on a young adult animal. they tend to hold onto this colorpattern for a while before it gets a bit darker .. and darker and darker. During this process they loose that yellowish and black dot pattern...
Anyway, the picture is a bit too harsh due to the flashlight but you'll get the idea ( I hope)

Well Tim, I've never seen one with these colors among my offspring (unfortunatellly I may add ...)
I have had animals with and without those dots, but never has an adult kept the blue with me

    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?
