Really ? Apart from the fact that Bolitoglossines are available it is very wrong that they should be kept similar to dart frogs, at least for most of them - and I think even keeping dart frogs in there is a very bad idea. I am no expert on that field but there is a reason most keepers do not use paludaria for their dart frogs, that is their disability to swim properly.
I really have to say that is one kick *** aquarium but it is not really suited for keeping caudates (or even frogs), even if you do not take into account possible mixing desasters.
compliments, beautiful tank! but are not there many animals?: O
Please, and this applies to the great many people in the hobby who speak English, look up the definition of "tropical", because you are wrong. "Tropical" is a latitude, not a climate or environment. Anywhere in Central America is, by definition, tropical, regardless of whether it is desert, coral reef, swamp, or glacier. Widespread misuse of the term does not change its correct definition.Most people assume that Bolitoglossids are tropical because they come from Central America. But that's not true; ...but they're not tropical.

Many good points have been made, and a couple of questionable ones. It was not my intent to recommend any particular species, as their various ecological niches and legalities are diverse. I will only address this:

Merriam-Webster says both definitions are correct.There is a difference between "the tropics", which refers to latitude (just as it would with the temperate zone, or the tundra [which is also used to refer to an ecosystem, not just a latitude]), with "tropical", meaning the warm and humid areas that are common within the tropics. But that is not the only ecosystem found there.
