you are without doubt doing something very right. any chance you could pop up some pics and outline your methods? there are many people who could benefit from them.ours is going on 11 years and was just wondering how much longer he would live. hopefully a lot longer as he is pretty cool.
at last someone who has newts in with fishwe don't do anything special, he lives in a 30 gal that is full. his tankmates are,1 krib(female) 1 plecostomus, 3 black skirted tail tetras, 3 mollies, 2 swordtails. and 2 x ray tetras. we recently started giving our fish blackworms and he loves them. and he also likes tropical granules. what suprises me is that he rarely goes up for air. his movements are pretty methodical except when we put in the worms, then he can move pretty good. i have pictures of him and will post them soon.oh yeah, his name is obviously, newton.
from the information i have received this is absolutely and categorically incorrect!!!!!newts produce a toxic substance that can be harmful to fish. Thats why it isn't recommended. but one newt is unlikely to cause harm.
yes as sure, as of anything. all the empirical and toxicological, information confirms it.are you sure? I kept some newts in a tank. I was told to replace the filter sponges, decor and substrates because the toxins from the newt would be nasty for the fish?
Are the toxins not in the poop? lol
i'll flesh out the evedence as to the toxicity of these newts.newts produce a toxic substance that can be harmful to fish. Thats why it isn't recommended. but one newt is unlikely to cause harm.
