well after lots of water care he is home. thanks for your advise i tried peat and it worked. also added live fern and a moss ball which he loves moving round tank. fingers crossed for next few weeks.
thanks he lost alot of his gills when the water went bad but they have seemed to start filling out again. the tunnel is made of rocks and he can get round the back and through the drift wood he spends most of his time attacking the fern as it moves, or trying to belly flop the moss ball. he is so funny im so glad he pulled through
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.
sorry I am having a hard time trying to upload the pictures- I have them saved on my hard drive... any suggestions-the prompts here are not allowing for downloads that way as far as I can tell. Thanks
