My albino axolotl seems to have developed a few red spots in a spot on his tail. I'm very new to keeping axolotls, so I'm not sure if this is anything normal or something to be worried about. Anyone know what might be causing it?

It looks like a small abrasion or bruise and is fairly common. I don't believe injuries like this can even be avoided, as I've had mine incur something similar in glass container once.

    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?
