Heyyo!

My Questions

Heyo, My name is Sam, I will be getting a newt soon, named General. As you see I do not have my picture as a newt, because I have not got one yet, I am really wondering what to get first, so can you reply to me, about what I need for starters, I have a few questions that I really need to be answered. c:

1: Do I need a filter?

2: Do I use gravel or something?

3: Where is a good place that sells live newts?

4: What size tank is the best for 1 newt? (Planning on not getting bigger than 10 gal.)

5: Do I need moss included in the tank?

6: How often would I do check up cleans?

7: How often would I clean the whole tank?

------------------------------------------------------

I know these are a lot of dumb questions, but I am really wondering about these things.

What species of newt are you getting? in the meantime, check out caudata culture care articles. if you are getting an adult aquatic newt you will need gravel and a filter.

1: Do I need a filter? Many of us don't use filters. I don't.

2: Do I use gravel or something? Not if you are getting an axie.

3: Where is a good place that sells live newts? That's been more difficult since the ban. Not easy in your state either. Watch the ads, and watch for eggs, this is the beginning of laying season.

4: What size tank is the best for 1 newt? (Planning on not getting bigger than 10 gal.) Well that answers your question. Not good for an axie, but probably for other newts.

5: Do I need moss included in the tank? depends on the species. If aquatic, no.

6: How often would I do check up cleans? I would check the tank daily and clean out any poop, and break down a terrestrial tank every 4 months and an aquatic tank, regular water changes.

7: How often would I clean the whole tank? see last answer.
