Smooth Newt

[ben-lee]

Does anyone know the Setup of a tank for a Smooth Female Newt Approx 3" please help

the same as your palmate newt

 

[ben-lee]

do you have a pic of a setup i could use for her? i recently found out my palmate is a smooth newt!

 

[william]

if it is the animal you posted a picture of then it is definitely a palmate newt, triturus helveticus, not a smooth newt, triturus vulgaris

 

[ben-lee]

the pic on my other post if a palmate i got it from google but im trying to get a god picture of my newt any tips for taking photos?

 

[ben-lee]
