Thank you for posting the photos, Andy. And for thinking of CC:famous:

No problem, i can mail you some more pics if you like, Jenn.
I've got 7 of these...they're really interesting and unusual looking, the few photos here dont really capture that very well. At first glance they look like Pachytriton Labiatus but on closer inspection they're very different

Hi Andy,

at what temperatures do you keep them?
What is the maximum temperature in summer time they survive?
Do they accept non living food?

cheers
Markus

Cool newts. They don't look like any others I've ever seen before.:wacko:

It is really a wonderful creature. I am very gald to hear that you are feeding them. Could I know how you do it?
They live in chilly running streams in the mountain area, so the water should be kept cold. How do you keep the tempreture? And I once got some, but they never ate. What kind of food do you feed them?

they feed on live earth worms and small live shrimp.


what is the maximum temperature they can stand?
