I remember keep mudpuppies in a big 1/2 barrel in our back yard in Pheonix. I would LOVE to get ahold of a couple.

worst reason i ever heard not to be allowed to have something, couldn't she have come up with something better then that?
I have been keeping and studying Necturus for over 10 years..Damn cool animals and they keep a Northern climate Herpetologist busy with field work over the winter

Well, my little brother had three newts in a 5-gallon tank once and since we did no research and didn't have the tank setup correctly they would climd out and then climb around on the floor. He also had a crayfish that did the same thing. She thinks they'll climb out and crawl around on the floor. I told her a tight fiting hood would solve this but she says their grose. She says tha same about mudskippers. Oh, Mom also says that mudskippers and mudpuppies need mud in thier tank bacause they have "mud" in thier common name.
