I love BTS (Barred Tiger Salamander)
I'm interested in getting a Kweichow crocdile newt. I've been researching a lot but what I can't seem to find is sound info on their habits. Are Kweichows aquatic, semi-aquatic, or terrestrial?
 
I too have heard mixed reports on how to keep them. But I usually see them housed in semi aquatic or glass divider setups. I know some people have had pretty good success with them in a terrestrial setup during the winter and then a semi aquatic during spring. This stimulates breeding. All in all though, I think a semi aquatic is a safe choice of tank setup. -Seth
 
And some of the "kweichowensis" that you find might end up being T. yangi, especially if they're WC

I have kept two Kweichowensis for 6 years now. Completely terrestrial, with life plants. They have large water dish they can completely submerge in. They seem to be doing fine and are very responsive at feeding time.
