Hello,

I just bought a newt today at our LFS. It was labeled paddle tail newt, but the salesman disagreed with the label and said it was a fire-bellied newt. I took two pictures, and since the quality isn't too great I can take more. Just wanted to put these out there.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the compliment! The picture certaintly stinks, but newty (temporary name)( I am sooo creative) is super cute! I mean, I couldn't not buy him.

Now I want an Axie, I love them!

I do have an empty 55 gallon....... The possibilities.

Thanks again,
Bri
