Looks great! Very happy tigers!

The only thing I would comment on is that you should probably test the pH of the brown moss you are using. It looks like sphagnum, which has a reputation for being too acidic. Take a bit of it fresh from the package, soak it in distilled water overnight, and test the pH of the water. If it's strongly acidic, you might want to find another substrate.

Going along with what Jenn said, I recommend cocoa fiber. I mix mine with topsoil, about 1:3 fiber to topsoil. It kind of acts as a 'binder' for the dirt, holding together burrows better.

I hope my outdoor enclosure will be ready soon!

So I can make it perfect for salamanders to breed.

Have a look at my website if your planning on putting them outside. Post some pics on my forum of your enclosure if you can some of my members would love to hear about your plans and tiger salamanders

Good luck with them
