Hi Dave,
The blister problem in Typhlonectes is most commonly related to water quality (too hard, too high in nitrates) although it can also be caused through the use of water conditioners and dechlorinators.

If you want to learn about Dermophis then keeping one is fine as you can still learn the behaviors and husbandry requirements.
