I was wondering if anyone can tell if this baby axolot is a lavender melanoid?

I'd call it a melanoid or blue melanoid. I thank lavender is a bit of a branding thing. Their are so many terms for color phases of axolotls it's hard to keep up.
 
Wow. That's GORGEOUS. Although there's a bluish tinge to the body, there's nothing blue about that head. The colour is definitely lavendar, branding or not, though I've no idea whether that makes it a 'lavendar melanoid'. Please post some pics as it grows!

    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?
