Pseudotriton ruber breeding success!

[Neotenic_Jaymes]

I'm getting a big group of ltc adults. Any suggestions or tips on keeping these guys?

I keep my group between the temps of 40-60 degrees. Obviously it's about 60 now in their tank. In winter temps will drop and that's when I usually see eggs. P. ruber can lay during different times of the year depending on population but mine lay in winter. Also I use sand as a main substrate and larger rocks to create hides and dens.

I suggest creating a similar setup to their actual habitat and have some sort of flow in the tank. I did notice females maid nests in areas that had a decent amount of flow.
