Can goldfish and newts live in same tank?
Goldfish are best with goldfish with the exception of weather (dojo) loaches, bristlenose plecos, or apple/mystery snails.You should not keep a fire belly newt with goldfish as their needs are very different. In addition, the newt needs a land area, so a smaller tank with partial water and a nice dry land area is best.

How do you take care of a red-bellied newt?
Fire belly newts are the salamanders that you see in some fish tanks at the pet store. They are all black with a red underside. These salamanders are quite easy to care for and they are a good choice for somebody looking to get their first lizard or salamander. Newts only grow to be about four or five inches in length which means that you don't need a large aquarium to keep them in. If you have a lot of newts you will need a bigger tank to house them. You will want a tank with a secure lid and you will probably want some type of underwater filtration system. The underside of the newt is red or orange to warn off predators that may be looking to eat them for a snack. The bring colors will warn the prey to stay away from the newt. Newts are secrete a type of poisonous liquid from glands located by their necks. This is not known to be poisonous to people. Newts are good swimmers but they will also come out of the water to bask in the sun. Newts also love to be on land as much as they do the water. They will get out of the water to bask in the sun under a heat lamp or light. You should provide them with a dry area to relax as well as an area to swim. You should have a basic 2 1/2 gallon tank for one newt and place a large pile of rocks somewhere in the tank so that the newt can come up from swimming and dry off. You should change the water frequently to avoid the water levels getting at an unsafe level. You will want to purchase some type of blackworms for your newt to eat or some type of pellet food. Most pet stores will sell pellet food that is designed for fire belly newts. If you have some type of gravel at the bottom of your tank you will want to make sure that the newt isn't able to suck it in because it will get stuck in the newt mouth.
What is the deepest the water can be for fire belly newts in a 4ft tank?
It can be 3.5 ft deep, but you may prefer to give them more "land" space.
Can a newt and a turtle be in the same tank?
Probably not, turtles are very curious creatures and they will probably bite the newt which will injure it. Then they might just decide to eat the newt. So no, get separate tanks for each.
Can a newt kill a fish in a fish tank?
No, newts eat small invertebrates.
How many fire belly toads can you put together in a tank?
Mabye. I've been able to put 2 fire belly toads in a 2 and a half gallon tank and they have plenty of room to hop around. But usually one Fire Belly Toad should have about two gallons for itself. So you could probably but up to 3 or 4 toads in that tank, but if they get REALLY fat, you might want to think about eather putting one of them in an extra 2 gallon tank, or just get a bigger tank. But just remember to have half land, half water, make the water atleast 3 inches deep, not to put them in derect sun light, and not to put to put lots of light and heat of the toads! Thank you!- J
