Good evening Gang!
Hope you are all OK.
Our 'flock' of newly laid FIRE salamander young are doing OK at the moment (Albeit we lost 2 within the first 24 hours).
However, one thing that is odd is that they all have a tendency to occasionally float to the surface very gradually and rest at the top. After a while they go back down again.
Is this normal? Are they tired? (We dont have much weed in the tanks so do they need more to allow them to rest near the surface?)
I will try and get some pics soon. (I couldnt find my video camera when the female was actually giving birth....it was amazing and we almost felt privileged to be witness!)
Thanks for any help offered,
Cheers,
Mike Gent
