Thanks to a local chap, I am now the proud owner of a pair of bouncing juvenile Spanish ribbed newts, which are happily settling in their new heavily-planted 10 gallon tank. Hopefully I will have some pics soon, but here are some pics (not mine, obviously) to tide you over:

What they look like now (at about 6" each):

...and what they should look like when fully mature:

The newts share their tank with 3 ruby nerite snails:

Unfortunatly first link does not seem to be working, but from the second link I can say: Cool newts! :)
Congrats on yet another addition to your own private zoo :lol:
