Exclamation I'm looking for an amphibian but not sure what to get! Any help?

Hiya, I'm extremely interested in exotics and desperatly want some sort of Phib' (amphibian) but i'm not sure what to get, noise doesn't bother me, nor does getting bitten.

Space isn't a limit here and nor is cost.

Please help!

Laura

I have a 9, nearly 10 year old Royal Python named Peeka, A Twin-spotted rat snake, an Albino cali/banded kingsnake whose only about 10 months old, and I have a spiny tailed monitor lizard (currently sleeping in my hair) who is also only young though not sure of right age!

No lol, your right! I think they get to about 3 ft, they are a dwarf monitor species, abit skittish and have been bitten a few times but you dont even feel it!
never been bitten by anything so pathetic HAHA! Hes lovely though, hes just a common species, though i like the red and black colour morph/species/blah xD

hes only 14 inches at the moment, can't wait for him to become a big boy!
