Today when I was buying bloodworms for my newt I saw a tank of fire belly toads and supposedly firebelly newts (probably all died of stress). I would like to inform the store of the harm they are doing to the newts and the frogs by placeing them in the same tank, but I don't know how to approach it.

I'm thinking that calmly walking in and handing them some research that proves them wrong would be the best way of handling the situation.

Can you help me find some other referances besides this website that states mixing species is bad? Or words of wisdom to help with the confrontation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    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.
