I have two taricha Granulosa, and the one I suspect is female has been looking like this for a little while. She still eats and shows interest in food, and will still swim around and change her rest spot in the tank a few times a day

I'm very concerned about how dark her belly has gotten

She and my other newt are both rough skinned

She eats banded crickets, night crawlers, the occasional wax worm, and a very small meal worm or two just while we're waiting for the Phoenix worms to come in

    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.
