Marmoratus triturus awake during the day

[Cyndra]

I've noticed that sometimes my marbled newts are active or at least awake out in the open during the day, I'm under the impression they are nocturnal so I'm concerned about this behavior and just wanted to know if anyone who also keeps them knows if this might be normal or if I'm doing something wrong possibly.

In and of itself, that shouldn’t be a cause for concern. I see mine out during the day sometimes too. I think that keeping them in a densely planted vivarium encourages that behavior.

Cool, I've got plenty of plant cover for them, id hoped it just meant they felt comfy and safe enough to explore or sleep out in the open
