Its about 10 gallon, 30 deep, 25 wide and 50 long.
and the two newts seem to respect each other, and they do not attack when one is near the other, nor in feeding periods, they go to search food at diferent time.
Im happy with it, and hope that it works properly.

I can’t really tell by the picture but I’ll tell you in case you didn’t know.....make sure you have 2 or more places for them to hide in. This way they have something to call their own and won’t attack their tank mate over territory. Nice tank!

Have you ever seen the hide-away rocks that they sell for lizards? It is 2 pieces, one which you place inside and the other outside. They hold together by very strong magnets. I have 2 of them. You could probably use them also. 2 out of the 3 love them! I’ll try to get a link to it for you.

Link Here is the link for it. My FBTs love it too. Sometimes I would find 2 in one den. Really cute. I love it because I could check in on them without disturbing them. It also save my sanity during the time one of the paddletails hadn’t come out for a week because he was shedding,

Well, they swim or climb to the logs.
And they go up to eat.
