Marbled Salamander
I haven't got a name for this one. I actually have two of these. The first one has no name,


and this is Gollum, becuase for the longest time I could only see his eyes peaking out from his cave, and he eats worms:

These are Marbeled Salamanders, Ambystoma opacum.

Another awesome little dragon, love the markings on this one. You must spend hours watching them. My sister keeps fresh water tropical fish, and I can gaze at them for just too long.

i have wanted a marble salamander for awhile now, they are hard to find!
i do have two tiger salamanders which are related. my biggest is 10 inches long and eats most anything. the smaller tiger is about 4 inches. i keep them separate of course.
i think mole salamanders make such great pets. so easy to keep and can easily be tamed.

What a neat little guy, really like the colors. Since you have 2, are you trying to breed them? assumming one is male and the other female
