Hi
In my worm farm I have heaps of these little white things. They have been in there for a while but today there are many more. Could anyone tell me what they are? I know the picture isn't great. The worm farm lives inside, it is a worm cafe, I haven't seen any other critters around.
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I'm on my phone.
Thanks to anyone replying :)
Kerry

Springtails will eat waste in terrestrial salamander tanks. When you notice you're getting a lot of them, time to change the substrate!
 
Yeah, once I spotted the legs, my initial guess was confirmed: springtails. Good food source for tiny critters, and a handy part of a terrarium clean-up crew.

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
