Hi. I'm new here and I'm Tomasz Janulewicz and I'm from Poland.
I have an problem with my A. tigrinum. About 25 days my Ambystoma ( 1.1 ) is in aquarium ( 70x35x30cm) Ad in Spring they have hibernation ( in 15'C, yes i know it's too high, but I wasnt' in home in this time) And I see to female is very fat and I give them to aquarium in temp -5-6'C, female has bigger kloaka than all time, am mal has something like palpitae on kloaka, I don't know what i must to do more, I worried about my female but i thing to she can die when they didn't laying eggs.
It's couple of pictures:
Male :

Now is more of water.

Please answer what i must to do, thanks
 
Breeding tigers is pretty rare. You can mist the tank to simulate rain, and add a water feature that has sticks in it. The female will lay eggs on clumps of sticks.

My female swells up like this every spring, and as long as I have had her, she has never laid eggs. Salamanders don't usually suffer from egg impaction; they just reabsorb the eggs.
 
I think to them are too young to breeding.... But it stay into aquarium to saturday, when they don't layed eggs i give them to terrarium back.
Thanks.
Cheers, Tomek
 
i don't know, i think to male are 120-150g, and female is 190-220g
 
Thanks. I'm trying to breed A. mavortium but cannot find breeding weights as indicators of maturity. My male weighs 80g and my 2 females weigh 90 and 110g.

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!

    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
