So my lps has had some sirens in for a while, some uber-expensive southern dwarves, and a few lesser sirens. Had the tank set up for a while now, and yesterday i got one of the lessers. Right now he/she is in a ten gallon tank, as he/she is still a baby, however i'm not going to keep her in there permanently, just until she grows a little. I have a piece of wood in the tank to serve as a hidey spot, but she hasn't used it since i gave her some bloodworms. She's currently swimming around in the tank right now. Such a cool animal. I've read the caudata care sheet, along with some other resources around the web, and i understand the need to dig, but before any substrate is given i would like to see him/her poop a few times.

Now for what you all came for.. pictures! :D (excuse the crummy quality, the camera on my phone isn't the best....)

So cute! I'll be looking forward to see more pictures as she/he grows!
 
I admire your restraint, when I come across things like that I have to buy a whole bunch!
By the way, what's the collective noun for sirens? :p :p

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    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?
