I’m looking into getting a tiger salamander, so I’m going to post my biggest questions here. Where can I get one (I live in Michigan)? I’m trying to avoid backwater reptiles and underground reptiles. What type of moss should I use for my bioactive terrarium? Is Galapagos brand sheet moss ok? I’ll put more questions below if I have them.
 
Essentially all tiger salamanders are wild caught. Your best bet is finding someone who wants to rehome one. I'd try posting here and on the Salamanders rehoming facebook group.

    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.
