Cant figure out what kind of newt i have

Hi, i have a newt and when i bought it at the pet store it was labeled as a paddle tailed newt. At the time i had no reason to be speculative of this label. However after browsing this site and reading the descriptions of paddle tail newts now i have some doubt as to the type of newt i have. It does not have a wide tail like paddle tails but instead a long tail that gets thin and pointed at the tip. It is brwn on top with an orange underbelly and the tips of his toes are orange too, as is as the bottom of his tail. I dont believe it is a paddle tail or a fire belly perhaps it is a california newt?????

could someone please tell me because i have had it living with a fire bellied toad and apparently they are not supposed to be housed with fire bellied newts....so i want to make sure the newt i have will be ok with the toad....so far they have been fine. ....i included a couple pics..not the best but hopefully good enough for a positive id.....any help will be awesome

That's a roughskinned newt, Taricha granulosa.

These are VERY toxic, so you want to keep handling to a minimum, but they make great pets. Like all salamanders, they should be kept cool. They should NOT be kept with firebelly toads, nor should firebelly newts, for that matter (all caudates should be kept in species-specific tanks). T. granulosa are also pretty highly aquatic. Read http://www.caudata.org/cc/species/Taricha/T_granulosa.shtml for more information.

ahhhh....i see thank you very much
