I just got two tiger salamander larvae and I am keeping them in a 73qt. Rubbermaid tub. As of right now, I am using river rock but I am going to change it to pea gravel. I am going to build them a cave like hide and where they can get on top of it so when they start going through metamorphosis. I had feeder fish in there for about 4 days. They have eaten 10 of them in that time. Should I keep feeding them the fish? I tried dropping piece of a worm in there but with the large rocks the worm just dug down into the rock. Also, what is the average time it take for them to become actual salamanders? The water is pretty cold right now so I am sure it is slowing the process down... Will the likely stay the color that they are as larva? Is there any way to tell the species from what color the larva is or is it just a heretidary type thing?
