Salamanders at pet store

[erik]

I went back to the pet store today and saw that they had "Salamanders." Yes, "salamanders." I don't know what kind, and I doubt that they do, since all the markings on the tank said was "Salamander." Oh, and it also said "$11.99." Just thought that was humorous, and stupid.

The temp in their newt setup was almost 76 degrees, too. Awesome, huh?

It's just a local pet store. Mom-and-pop place. They sell "fire newts" and "salamanders" but they mainly deal with freshwater/tropical fish.

Eric:
By any chance are you in Long Island Ny?I ask because there is a petstore around here carries slimy-lined-spotted-marbled-fire-tiger salamanders and even mudpuppies besides newts.Not all in stock all the time but seasonal.

Sorry, nope. I'm in a little town called Dumas, TX right now. Just visiting for Christmas break. I spend most of the year in Lubbock, where they have a couple decent pet stores, but few that carry any kind of newt.
