I like them too. Do you have a full enclosure picture?

Not as yet-they are being temporarily housed in a simplistic set up whilst I work on their main viv a little more.

Great newts, Sam. Just make sure the lid you have is really secure. When I kept fire bellied newts a long time ago, they both escaped through a tiny crack between the lid and the tank, and died. Crying or Very sad
