Hello,

Since a few weeks my 15 year old newt got a big white spot on his back. It started at the end of a 3 week heatwave here in the Netherlands. Water temperature was 26 degrees. Now it's in quarantine for 10 days. No heater, temperature 19 degrees. I've used esha 2000 only but it doesn't seem to be working. Now i'm stressing out :( He's eating and reacting normal.

Does anyone know what to do? (first post, I will search the forum for more information)

Thanks,

Davy

Thanks for your reply. I will try this.. carefully. I just bought plain sea salt, no additives on the label. Lets hope this works. :uhoh:

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
