Anyone have a tank that needs a salamander? I have a 4" or so tiger salamander living in my window well of my house. Not sure how he got there if anyone wants him take him, or i will take him back to the golf course later tonight. I live in Willowpark SE Calgary.

EDIT: There is in fact 2 of them in there. one 4", and one 5" maybe 6"

I have a 150g. Is that big enough for him? Oh and is he reef safe? :lol:

There are a lot this year, a friend of mine has caught 8 in the last 3 days in his pond in the back yard.

They're really neat creatures. I kept a pair that was the only 2 to survive about 12 of them getting stuck in my window well, they were so dehydrated and starved that they would not have survived hibernation (this was October '07 so they didn't have time to refatten before the big freeze). I released them the following spring.

Yeah it seems they get into window wells pretty easy, just not out quite so much. Maybe we need to put little ramps so they can crawl out.
