Well since creekcritter started it, I figured I would post my newt room and then if anyone else wants to post pictures......it would be cool to see everyone's setups.

OMG what a room! I am so out of my league here...

In the last picture, in the black-rimmed tank - are those axolotls?

Hi Audrey, good to see I am not the only one who has more tanks then room! Looks great, and would love to see other peoples rooms also.
 
That's a pretty sweet newt room Audrey!
 
Wow Audrey...It looks so organised and efficient.

Thanks for the showcase - it looks great!

I hope you'll forgive me if I don't show this to my axolotls...they'll mutiny! ;)

Cheers Jacq.

I think everyone has that problem, I know I do. Thats what I get forliving in a cupboard, I suppose.
 
Anyone else wish to share photos of their collection room? I know some of you have stunning stuff!
 
I'll share a few photos of my catastrophe of a newt room. It's a work in progress. Not all of the tanks are pictured because they're outside at the moment while I build more shelves because (as you can see, there are a lot of containers stacked!). Besides what are pictured I have 2 more 55 gallons, 2 more 20 gal. longs, 1 more 75 gallon, 5 more 10 gallons, and a few other odd sized ones.

...yes I know it's a mess, and they aren't great shots, but what can you do...

I'm enjoying seeing these photos (including yours on another thread, creekcritter). I'll post some of mine, but I have to wait for dear hubby to return from travel with the camera [drums fingers...]
 
I can't wait to see your set up Jen!
 
I'll get the sweeping brush out and tidy up a bit first.
Nice set up Audrey wish i had as much room as you and T, i'd be able to get a bed in then i'd never have to leave. Might not go down to well with "her indoors" hmmm but i don't know.
 
I'll repost photos of my newtroom too ;)

The racks:

And old beaten-up fridge which serves as the temporary place for the paludarium:

Same tank in the evening:

later in the evening it will switch to this less brighter (not obvious on the photo) 'Blue Moon' fluorescent tube for a couple of hours:

Coen, in your third pic, that's a great idea to keep the sand and the food separated. Nice set up.
 
I was trying to figure out that 3rd photo. The newt doesn't seem to be inside the tank! Only after reading Jacob's comment and looking closely at the last photo did I figure it out. Brilliant!!!

Awesome set of pictures, you are very neat and organized Coen!
 
Just thought I would show some of my newt room. The rest I need to tidy up before I can take pictures.

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    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?
