I put a few crickets in this setup last week. After they gone( possibly salamander ate them since i didn't see the dead crickets and it's impossible for them to escape. However i didn't see salamander's poo either), i put some more crickets (like 5), and i can still see the crickets hiding on the bark. Usually the salamander is hiding under the bark and I'm not sure if it will come out and hunt at night since i didn't see it. However this picture shows he came out because i changed the water and he is possibly frightened when removing the bark. Is he looks ok? Should i try some other food or just leave it until it calm down?

    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.
