Amphibian Vitamins

[mike]

I bought Reptivite Reptile Vitamins for my turtle and was wondering if I could use it with my Tiger Salamanders. If not, does anyone know any amphibian vitamins to make them healthier.

Hike Mike. I use frozen bloodworm that's "fortified"

A balanced mixture of rep-cal and herptivite are a good choice as the seperate mixtures reduces the amount of catalyzed oxidation fat soluable vitamins.

I also use rep-cal and herptivite with good results.

I have used a mixture of 3:1 Repcal/Herptivite for years with lizards. I rarely add it to any of the Tylototriton food however because they eat such a wide variety of live, frozen, and prepared foods already (also it tends to wash off rather easily in the water). I did pick up some WC Salamandra s. terrestris-(I think) this weekend and have been adding it to the earthworm chunks that I have been feeding them.
