[…]clawed), newts (eastern, marbled, ribbed), aquatic salamanders (sirens, axolotls) and turtles (spotted, painted, snapping, musk, mud). Tropical fish of all kinds also relish these shrimp, as do US natives such as Banded Sunfish and Tadpole Madtoms.

A single adult spotted salamander requires an enclosure of approximately the size of a 10 gallon aquarium. Spotted salamanders may also be kept in ventilated sweater boxes on sheet moss or paper […]
[…]breeding ponds by late July or August, after which the ponds usually dry up. Miscellaneous Adult spotted salamanders have lungs but rely largely upon cutaneous respiration (the absorption of oxygen through the skin). The skin must remain moist if this form of respiration is to be effective – they are […]
[…]populations breed where fishes are present, but only if dense aquatic plant cover is available. Spotted salamanders are members of the family Ambystomatidae – the mole salamanders.

I was also able to tong-feed the insects to several species of “live food only” amphibians, including horned frogs, green frogs, leopard […]
