The quality of your photos is quite all right, Tomas! And don't be ashamed of hydra; these kinds of critters are the sign of a healthy tank, in my opinion. Your newts are lovely, keep up the good work!!!

Nice photos of some nice Sasayama, Tommy!

I see you have some with golden coloration in the throat area especially, which is something I really like in this type of C. pyrrhogaster.

Good luck with them!
