California Newts

My two California Newts the day I got them! They moved from a 5 gallon container into a 29 gallon tank.

 Excited to have a pile of blackworms to snack on.
 Getting some air.
 They are so nice about being held!
 More holding. 
 This is Galio sitting on top of the lily that they later beat up from walking through it too much.
Galio sitting in the Java Fern and Anachris.
 Kog'Maw hanging out in the brazilian pennywort.
 Galio hanging out underwater as usual. 
 Kog'Maw hanging out above water as usual.
 Snacking on mosquito larvae. The two used to look almost identical, but the one that likes to be aquatic, Galio, is now darker and has the "jowls" for sucking in aquatic prey, and more of a tail fin after only a month.
 Kog'maw often climbs the Pothos.
 Newt belly!
Kog'Maw getting some air. 
 More Kog'Maw.
 Yeap. More Kog'Maw.
I know. There are more pictures of Kog'Maw than Galio. That's because Kog'Maw got sick after I got him, so I was watching him closely to see how he was doing all the time. He's now happier and more active, maintaining a little belly instead of being thin!
