Thanks for sharing Jorge

Nice shots. I love Carpatian mountains ( even if I've never been there

Mesotriton alpestris is sympatric with L. montandoni on that place? or prefers bigger points for breeding?
 
Hi Ruben
yes it is. They are found together in the same places.
 
Lovely place, lovely animals and lovely pictures
Whats the in/out water temperature there?
Best greetings ;)

that 5th photo of the pair looks surreal-as if they are floating in air...is that picture of them in water or on land (the log looks mostly dry)...if its in water -how did you get it so clear? if its on land ...weird.......
 
Yago: now it`s about 10°C during the day.
Paris: they are in water. The log is pretty wet. It dropped to the bottom like a stone. And I didn`t dim the water

beautiful animals, i never noticed how intricate the tail pattern was on the males before, i always pictured them as the dullest of the genera not so sure now!

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!
