Heh guys, i am currently keeping a pair of verrus. I bought them seperately, abt 1-2 months apart. The 1st 1 that i bought is feeding well, whereas the 2nd 1 is actually not eating much, or at all. When i bought the 2nd, i actually moved them both into an air-con room, and during that period, both of them seldom ate. Anyway, abt 2 months later, i moved them back to my original room (w/o aircon), and the 1st one started feeding normally again. However, till now the 2nd one is hardly eating anything, and is already very very skinny.
What could be possible reasons for this?
And what should i do now?
Anyway, i will add in a photo of the 2 of them together, and u guys can see the size difference.

haha, yeah!
the skinny fellow has started feeding again, i was reading my notes when i noticed her moving around, next i saw the mouth moving. I stared at her for awhile, and noticed she was eating the bloodworms which i left inside the water. Anyway, also noticed she was rubbing herself against the tank n my deco. Then i looked closely at her n noticed she is actually shedding.
Anyway, finally got her to eat....yeah...

    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.
