Hi All. I just happened to stumble across this place while searching for information on the Three-toed Amphiuma I found in my dry drainage ditch. I haven't ever seen such a Unique(?) creature and had to find out more about it.

I haven't ever kept this type of creature (I'm mainly a mammal pet person

) so I'm at a loss.

I guess what I need to know is

1) is it okay to keep it? If not any where should I release it .

2) what kind of care will it need. Right now it's in a 55 gallon aquarium with one large algae/bottom feeder type fish.

3) food. what's best/easiest to feed and how often.


This thing really threw me for a loop. Can't say I've ever seen any thing like it. Right now it's about 2 foot long...will it get much bigger?
