Hello,
I have four juvenile P. Waltls that my husband and I recently moved into a new custom built tank and I have a few questions.
1.) The Waltls seem to be coming up for air much more frequently than in their previous, smaller and more shallow habitat. I was wondering if this was a sign that the water is too deep or that there may be a water balance issue.
2.) We planted several different kinds of live plants in the new tank and they seem to be turning a translucent brown color suddenly almost like they are dying. Is there something I don't know about that may restore them and keep them green? For example plant food?
The new tank is 20 long and 12 inches deep. The water is 10-11 inches deep in the tank. There is also plenty of places for the waltls to sit near the surface of the tank.
Thanks in advance for any advice, I have read almost every thread in the Pleurodeles section but none seem to help with my questions.
