Default New amphibian

I have a spare 7.8 gallon tank, I belive, the measurments are 18 x 10 x 10" so that works out at the slightest under 8 gallon, I was wondering what amphibians could be comfortable be kept in there, like permamently, no darts, I dont want anything common either, I like the looks of asian painted frogs and things like that but what eles could be kept if anything?

I poen to salamanders and newts aswell, would prefer it to be a terrestrial setup but i could go with like half land half water if needed.

Help me gays. I mean guys

a female guinetti is nigh on the same size as a male cranwells horned frog and moves about more than a tree frog. some ones been giving you duff information. mines currently playing splash, this involves standing in the water, then jumping 8 to 10 inches vertically and landing back in the same place in order to make as loud a splash as possible.
