I am getting some marbled newt eggs (Triturus marmoratus) shipped to me this week. I have never hatched newt eggs before. I have experience with hatching bearded dragons, snakes and some freshwater fish. I have read some info on here, But would like some answers from those of you that do this regularly. I am setting up a 10 gallon tank and just wondering what I should have in it ready for them. I know they need fairly cold water. Should I put the pump in prior to the hatching or wait until they are hatched and eating?And should I put the normal environment such as logs and hides and plants prior to hatching? I know for the first few days they eat the eggs they were hatched in. I have also had newts from the juvenile stages to adulthood, so I know what they need and eat after that point. But what is best to feed them for the first few weeks? Any answers would be great. Thanks
