Bascicly i have down sized my collection about 2 years ago and i have lot of spear tanks any where from 20g tanks to 6ft out door vivariums.however im looking to get an other amphibian so what do you guys suggest i sould get.P.S i am looking something interesting
 
I'm not sure what other amphibians you have, but I do sugesst some kind of newt... The most common newt would be a Chinease FireBelly newt.... you could also get an axolotl... DON'T put the 2 together by the way... I've heard Axolotl's will eat the newts...
Have a good day!

i highly suggest an axolotl. although i am partial to them because i have 2. but they are definitely the coolest easiest going animal i have ever owned. plus they come in fun colors and you can get coppers in the uk which are really pretty.

Chinese firebelly newts(H. orientalis) would be a good option if you could find captive bred ones. Petshop newts will be wild caught and highly stressed.
Some other good options are Ambystoma sp., Triturus sp., H. cyanurus, C. pyrrhogaster, etc.
 
Also, if you are grouping frogs and toads with the other amphibians, I recommend White's Tree-Frogs, and Pac-man frogs. But for salamanders and newts, I recommend Ambystoma species, they are hardy and personable
