Today I welcomed home my first albino axie ... I was looking for a melanoid but unfortunately the breeder had none, I was more than happy to take this little one home though, he has a cycled 10 gallon all to himself. He is only about 1.5 inches









 
Thank you :) He doesn't know what to do with his new palace <3
 
I got him to eat :) and he is SO active :D

Baby gills






 
Aww. It's so tiny. Look how big the hide is!
I still can't imagine how something so tiny can become so huge!
 
He already has such a great appetite :) We are feeding f/t bloodworms and live blackworms.

I can only imagine with the giant sallies they also start out so teeny and get MASSIVE. and anacondas .. geez.

Awwh, he is so teeny! And look at those bloodworms in his belly!
They're selling 2 this size and colour at my LFS. I was so tempted to get them but having my two is hard enough work as it is!

I also love how Natsu (if the melanoid is Natsu) is looking at him, like, 'Y U so small?!'
 
Yes Natsu is my melanoid :)

It was a priceless moment... But thank goodness she is not an agressive eater.

They are difficult at this age, I am lucky the little one is such a good eater.

    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.
