I don't keep frogs, but I do have a couple of Firebellied Newts.- cynops orientalis. I don't think the newts would eat the frogs unless they were tiny, BUT frogs are usually responsible for injuries, etc. to newts. If not convinced, follow this linkwww.caudata.org for some horror stories...

Thanks VantgE I didn't update here because I put up a new post about finding that Caudata site and the answers to my questions (Sorry, my attempt at including the link didn't work). Best of all, I found out what the eggs look like and how the newts fold up the leaves on a plant after...

Hi Newt Fans, In my quest to find information on how to care for the Chinese Fire Bellied Newt larvae which I discovered in my plant bowl last week, I came across a really informative site on my newts and many, many others including salamanders. Check out [URL=www.caudata.org] and in...

Thanks Kristine. I've been searching other websites looking for info. but no luck yet. So far I've just left them in the "excess plant jar" where they were born and haven't done a thing apart from remove a lot of plants so that they have some room. I figured the whole atmosphere in there must...

Hi X-Router, Amazing how in a few short weeks you have gone from absolute beginner to offering your cutie newt the Ritz of Aquariums! Fantastic. That's a great set up you have and your newt looks sooooo happy. Now all he needs is a newty friend, and soon you could be enjoying the patter of...

Hi Pugwinkle, I'm by far an expert on newts, but seeing no-one has answered your post I'll tell you my experiences. I have two Chinese Fire Bellied Newts in a 15 litre tank. They seem to be doing really well and I get the impression they are hardy little creatures. One newt escaped from the...

For about 2 months I've had a couple of Chinese Fire Bellied Newts - obviously a pair because yesterday I discovered about 12 or so babies in my jar of unwanted plants. My plants have been growing so bountifully that I have been keeping a 3 litre jar stuffed with the excess stuff - some also...

Hey, They are beautiful tanks. Seeing they're in your bedroom, I was wondering if the sound from the filters doesn't bother you. :S I've only got one small tank in my son's bedroom and the sound of the filter is just too much - got to turn if off at night which I know is a big "no no" but...

Uh oh, I've just been surfing the web trying the find out what these fish are and I think they're Painted Glass Fish. I'm heading back to the shop this week to see if they're identical but at the moment it all seems to fit - particularly as the website I just visited stated that painting by...

Hi Everyone, Thanks for the welcome. I look forward to giving and receiving lots of information. After reading through a lot of the pinned beginners posts I am astounded I've still got any live fish! I think so far I've made every mistake possible. I must have really hardy fish!! Or just a...

Hi Alaska, I will do that, once I become more adept at digital photography and using my computer. Last week I saw some really interesting looking fish. They were silver and each had a different rainbow colour on their extremities(not dyed), as if they were refracting the light differently...

Can fish be bothered by a noisy filter? :S My Jebo R 338 has a built-in trickle filter and is about 3 weeks old. It seems to be getting noisier this past week. I topped up the water level to lessen the splashing noise of the trickler, now the filter is making vibrating noises. I can't find...

Hi, I sent off my first post yesterday before even introducing myself - so I'll remedy that today. I'm an Australian expat living in China. Although I had tropical fish as a teenager it's some time since I had any interest in fish. This was reignited when a fellow expat left China and I...

I'm relatively new to tropical fish (and have never chatted before! - so sorry if I mess up the etiquette). I presently live as an expat in China. Can someone tell me the name of the fish on the top left hand corner of Fish Gurus post. :kewlpics: I have two of them (inherited from an expat...
