I was cleaning out the Alpine newt tank and came across two larvae. They were a bit skinny so, after moving them to their own enclosure, I introduced them to some chopped tubifex, which they were quick to devour.

Sorry, no pictures... yet! :smile:
 
Would Love to see some pictures if possible:wacko:
 
Pictures are coming, I promise! My computer crashed over the weekend, so I couldn't upload any pictures.

Also, the recent water change must have been an aphrodisiac, because I'm seeing courtship and more eggs being laid.

:D
 
The pictures, as promised. They're certainly no Ansel Adams. :crazy:

    Had a question that I just want to be sure of. My marbled newt is a little over a year old and has started to develop and I noticed that he is starting to swell a little below his abdomen. I guess I’d like to know if they are his testes or if I need to be concerned.

    Hello!!! I'm new to this website and idk how to ask a proper question on the designated spot yet, so I'll ask here, I'm a first time Axolotl owner, and my dad used to run an aquarium store, anyways... Orca, my Axolotl, seems to loose parts of her toes on one limb from time to time, I can't seem to find the problem. Tempature is well, she doesn't seem to have any infections or anything, though. And I'm not sure if I'll be able to find a vet in Brazil for amphibians that are in a reasonable distance to drive without stressing Orca out too much

    Hello, I’m hoping for some advice please. Our Axolotl is about 7 months old. Till now no problem. Eating, growing and happy. He’s simply stopped eating. Everything looks fine, his gills look healthy and no apparent signs of sickness. He just swims past the pellets and bloodworm like he can’t smell it. I don’t think it’s a blockage either. Any ideas and suggestions for treatment would be much appreciated. Thank you!
