As you probably all know already. I got myself some C.Orientalis (2) a couple of weeks ago. I had a hard time feeding them and they were both sick when I purchased them.
Yesterday, I lost the sickest one of the newts. I wasn't surprised. But today, this morning actually the second one also passed away. Here is the thing, 3 days ago, I purchased an disolvable antibiotic/good bacteria releaser from a store. It was said on it that it was healthy for Newts and that it helped curing fungus and infection.
My newts passed away and I think that even if they were sick, it's this thing that actually killed them.
It's quite sad especially for the animals themselve but also because I've invested a lot of time and money (about 200$ canadian) to get a good tank with a good environment. I followed advices from here for the environement and I don't think it was because of the housing.
But I do not abandon the idea, I don't want to have fish. They are nice but quite boring. I really liked having those little guys in my tank and I want some more.
First things firts, I am from Canada, near Montreal, do you know where I can get healthy Newts in that area? I also plan to cycle my tank before purchasing anything. Getting a healthy tank before I put any other animal in.
