Very usual... but nevertheless different, aren't they?

Hello there...
Just a few photos of my 2 male Russian Bombina Orientalis... Bought them on January this year, they never had any problems, just as expected. The water is a bit reddish, because of the wood...
Hope you like...

Hi Miranda,

why do you use such a high level of water? Bombina are much more easy in low water levels; around 5 cm is perfectly okay for them.


Nice animals though.

I use to had them in aquaterrariums with a very lower level of water, and then in a wet terrarium, with a bowl of water.
Now I've tried this, and they seem prefer it than the others I used before, and they usually swim to the bottom and stay some time there.
Since it is no issue to them, I'll stay with this model of aqua-terrarium.

Thanks for the compliments...

    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?
