Moving CFB

MaDsci · 13th August 2009

I'm going to move my 4 chinese fire belly newts from their 10 gallon to a 20 gallon heavily planted tank. Do you think I'll completely lose them? I don't want to see them once every couple of weeks when they aren't hiding and will this affect their eating habits in any way cause to me it would seem a bigger tank would make it harder for them to find food. Fire belly newts aren't the smartest creatures.

This will probably make them more visible since a heavily planted tank means more hides it will more than likely make them more bolder. As far as food, I would feed them in the exact same spot everytime, that way they get conditioned to look in that spot for food.
