Nice, but typical for most gigliolii though (as can be found in the original description). Red throats can be found in some S.s. fastuosa too by the way. Can you put a dorsal picture as well, and do you know from where it originates?

Hi Serg. Well, I know not a thing about fire salamanders

But it sure is nice! Here's a dorsal shot:

The photo description suggests it's from somewhere in Italy.

Hehehe! Well, I could purchase it if I wanted to but I'm frankly terrified at the prospect of getting into fire salamanders...as they're so damn intriguing

I'm already exerting super-human efforts to limit myself to Cynops and Hynobius. Actually, I once had a fire but gave him away as I wasn't giving him enough attention -- plus I didn't like having to feed large crickets.

    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?
