Hi all,

This taken has now been settling in for the past month, filter all good, guardians established and so forth.

Looking for some feedback on the tank before I source some animals. Am thinking either marbled or alpine.

I don't want anything that needs heating etc and wants something fairly hardy etc. As eventually would love to breed and set up proper outdoor enclosures.

Thanks for all advice and feedback!

Looks nice, but if you wanted alpines I’d raise the water level to a few inches of the top and give them a log to haul out on. Mine never leave the water and extra water would be preferred.

I keep a marbled newt and it almost never enters the water.

Good luck.

    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.
