I have 2 Black-Chinneds myself, so far I never have experienced territorial issues. They aren't too active compared to other species though, mine are usually burrowed or floating in the water.
 
They are quarantining in a 16qt Sterlite tub but I plan to move them to a 29 Gallon paludarium after quarantining is over, I've had them for a little over a month.
 
My red salamander just got bloated my oldest one he can't even go underwater he just floats do you know what happened or how to help

    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.
