Cynops orientalis pics....male/female?

[joseph]

Just curious...the supposed female decided to take a walk and didn't come back...

I believe the male is on the bottom...correct? The female has the lonfer tail and you can kinda see that the males vent is more swollen. I think the girth difference was probably due to how well fed they were-the female refused food.

The supposed male(still in the tank). Shorter tail, slightly swollen vent.

Even though he's eating...he seems to have a sore...visible in this pic. I used a Q-tip to dab the area with hydrogen peroxide and waiting for the fizzing to subside before putting him back in the water. Anything else I should do? How long will it take to heal?

I just thought this pic was kinda cute...

Hmm...these images arent working. If you are a mod and you see this...feel free to edit it.

On the photo gallery start page (bottom) you find an explanation:

\... image{The title of my photo} (drop "... ")

use this command, you'll be able to upload pictures here; the command you use works on phpbb-forums, but not here.

By the way, I think you may be correct about male/female. Ashame your female ran off, keep in mind that cynops can escape via virtually every small whole. So secure your tank or your male will go after her.

And here you may find some answers about the sore:

now it says the formatting code "image" cant be used in this context...

?

 

[joeri]

you forgot the backslash in front of image

 

[joseph]

Now it says that codes cannot be sandwiched inside on another?!

 

[joeri]

sorry, forgot to say this:

either you upload a picture from your pc; then you use \image
either a weblink; then \imagelink

both plus {name or link}

It's not that easy and info is on bottom of this page: http://www.caudata.org/forum/messages/985/11633.html?1087367157
