It's very odd, when I took my newt to the vet and he asked some questions, I got TOTALLY conflicting information than I've been following.
I'm not quite a novice and I've been an avid reader/learner here on caudata.org.
Some examples....
1. Vet asked what temps I keep the tank, I said between 60 and 65 F, he said that was too low, keep it at 70 F.
2. Asked how often I clean the tank, I said as little as possible (don't want to mess with the cycling process and good bacteria), he said I should clean it well about every 2 weeks!!
Very odd!! What to believe? Here I though I was doing everything right, and maybe I'm the cause of my newt's illness?
Anyone else ever get conflicting info from a vet?
