The crocodile newt, a representative of the genus Tylototriton, is one of the most impressive and charismatic amphibians available in home aquatics, or more precisely, in aquaterrariums. These amphibians, nicknamed for their characteristic “armored” skin and powerful tail, require specific living conditions that are drastically different from those for tropical fish. Successful crocodile newt keeping requires in-depth knowledge of the species’ biology, strict adherence to temperature regimes, and the creation of a hybrid habitat – a paludarium or aquaterrarium.
